Trans fat is everywhere and you know its bad for you. Not even a gram is acceptable because your body can’t process it.

Scary thought is that the FDA doesn’t require food manufacturers to declare trans fat less than 0.5g per serving. So if you eat 10 servings of 0.4g of trans fat foods, you will get 4g of trans fat while “thinking” you get 0.

Another scary thing is that trans fat is VERY close (several molecules away) from PLASTIC. That makes the story above not a surprise at all.

If you eat trans fat foods – you might as well the plastic packaging as well!
cakes, cookies, crackers, pies, bread, potato chips, corn chips, popcorn, margarine, french fries… you get the idea!

Trans Fat REALLY messes up your brain, your cell membranes, makes you fatter due to insulin resistance, and makes it harder to get lean!

The history of trans fat is also scary. The formula for hydrogenating liquid, non-animal fats into solids was developed in Germany. Heat, metal catalyst, pressure and hydrogen turns a liquid plant fat into a solid. And the main use of this was to make…

CANDLES!!…@#%!@#%!@#%

Candles...Yummy!

Proctor and Gamble took over this patent but sadly, electricity was invented! So the candle market became smaller so they decided… oops, if people are not going to burn this fat, they might as well EAT IT!

Think about that before you choose another piece of food with hydrogenated fat!

BTW this kind of unnatural fat STINKS without the extra processing it is put through. That should give us some clue that it is bad fo us to eat eh…
