Diet & Nutrition Tips : How to Recognize Trans Fats in Your Food

[MovingUpp]

Hey rachel or however you spell your name.

Fully hydrogenated oils are not trans fats. They're still hydrogenated, though.

Trans-bonded fats are not necessarily synthetically derived. They exist naturally in smaller amounts in cow's milk, for instance...though in much smaller concentrations.

You might also tell your audience that fully hydrogenated oils+fluid oils at room temperature are used to preserve food but don't technically have trans-fats in them and are still deleterious. Ta-Ta.

[ouivalerie]

Your supposed to read a label? Working with your nose and feelings is SUPPOSED TO WORK OUT FOR PEOPLE. How are the mfg so sneaky to successfully adulterate the products? Nature doesn't read to eat. Please work harder on how to get the message out if it's so important. Right now I got some free peanut butter that is delicious and full of hydrogenated (trans fat). Please solve this problem because nobody can believe this as the stomach and nose is saying transfat is not a problem in peanut butter.

She's fairly accurate but should be said to clarify the "0" grams trans on labels can contain up to .5 grams per serving (yes she said you still have to check the label for "partially hydrogenated" etc. and if you avoid these ingreds. you can avoid building the fats in your body).

Also, trans fats interfere with our natural anti-inflammatory systems leading to many diseases.

The body builds them into virtually all cells so the effects are very widespread.

They should never have been FDAapproved

2 things

1st What is "Chemical Heat"? (I don't think she's well informed here.)

2nd There are natural trans fats (she said cis-fats are natural and trans aren't natural) and the natural trans fats are known to be beneficial. The artificial trans are the worst fat you can eat.

Animal studies are showing that obesity and diabetes are from artificial trans and other diseases will be linked as time goes on.

I stopped eating these in '72 and at 55 I look to others to be 40 and feel like 25.

[darrinthebold]

I think that she just wanted to say that the fats have been altered structurally, that would be to say that the structure has undergone a change from cis-type to trans which I don't actually kow but perhaps the body does not produce any enzymes to break down this particular kind of structure.

good tips!

[NERDZKANDY]

Wow....0 trans fat on the front of the box isent true? Man why would they lie to us?

[big92fs]

Stupid whore.

[dreendroid]

yeah...it would be better to have sex w/ her then this shit

[IrishHaloNerd]

Jesus Christ how stupid these people are! If this is all it takes, I want to do this! Seriously, everybody knows trans fats are bad, and that you should look on the box. What fat America doesn't know though is that all fats are good if you work hard enough to burn them off. I know of a guy who mountain biked from Mexico to Canada who ate ONLY FATTY FOODS, who succeeded and emerged from the ordeal even stronger.

[mrreman]

I know a guy who ate a horse. the whole thing.  and he's stronger and they call hime horse cack.. Who gives a fuck about your friend from mexico who ate fat canadians during a road trip to the store.

[IrishHaloNerd]

Sir Douchebag, you don't understand the theme of my arguement. You can eat fats as long as you burn them off, as demonstrated by my friend.

[mrreman]

NERD, the hotty is letting you know TRANS FATS are killer and how YOU can tell the differance between good n evil fats. Bad fats cause heart disease and major health issues. Your DUMB because you bring up nonsense such as your friend road his tricycle to canada eating nothing but FATS.. Obviously you dont know what your talking about because what you wrongs makes no sense. It's like saying.. "my friend drove drunk from mexico to Canada and he didn't kill anyone" ?

[IrishHaloNerd]

contrary to what our misleading agricultural sect of the government wants you, the stupid american consumer to think, fats are really good when you use them correctly. there are no "good" or "evil" fats, they are as fake as your disguise as a "hotty" (I honestly think you must be a fat cow if you are watching this). Americans have been led to believe that a pill or some miracle food will reduce weight. That is a lie. It takes strenuous excercise "hotty" to stay thin and athletic.

[mrreman]

I was referring to the girl in this video as a "hotty". You continually bash americans and although true americans have many issues on their plate such as thier economy. Americans and obesity go hand in hand. I on the other hand am not AMERICAN, I AM CANADIAN!

[IrishHaloNerd]

I accept your surrender.

[mrreman]

I knew you would.. touche!

[MovingUpp]

I am in no way fat. the veins on my six pack continue to exist despite my complete lack of athleticism over these last seven years. I'll grant you, though, that when I used to exercise, I did so with passion.

Anyway, I was viewing this poorly informed video hoping to learn something. What I learned is that she is no expert on trans-fats.

[ouivalerie]

The chemists are working on slow death. Eating your way to the grave...Some people are hundreds of pounds before they die, so it seems like this isn't the quickest killer. I sure hope they come up with more ways to prove how this kills people that makes sense. People can't feel transfat causing a problem just after they eat it so...I hate the confusion. There must be a recongizable symptom immediately for people to know. Maybe they are supposed to die or maybe the chemists overrating their help.

[umdterp999]

ugly

[101Julie101]

she's not ugly. people now these days call people "ugly" if they don't look like the girls on a magazine, well guess what?!? not every girl looks like that, aucttuly most girls on the magazine dont look like that, it's "computerized". so get over it if she doesn't look perfect

[roseagain2]

you should be so lucky! Keep playing guitar! You Rock!

[mysticalpaladin]

What works for me is if the food has an overwhelming flavor it likely has transfat and it is likely to be heavily greased. Use good judgment that it is not the spices. We chemically like fat and because fat is linear like you said, then it must taste darn good.

[BrulesRules001]

lol this video doesnt say much. just check the label... i knew that dummy!

[Shirviu]

I learned something new!

[coolglock19]

yeah!
