  • Trans fats are created through the process of adding HYDROGEN GAS to a liquid oil UNDER EXTREME HEAT AND PRESSURE, which not only turns the oil RANCID, but also produces a substance NOT FOUND IN NATURE. The process CONVERTS the NATURAL 'CIS' form of fatty acids to an ALTERED 'TRANS' form. Trans fats were created to EXTEND SHELF LIFE and a cheap alternative to the more expensive process of making real butter.

  • This video fails to represent the true and most important fact about trans fats. The optimal body temperature in a human is 37 degrees. Exceeding this temperature only slightly, say 41 C, can lead to DEATH! Normal fats burn well below 37 degrees, so in other words, are 'burnable.' Trans fats are burned at 47.5 C. Are body can't reach that temperature no matter what!
