Trans fats are artificially produced fats that are very unhealthy. The consumption of trans fats is one of the main causes for the current obesity epidemic. Trans fats are used in thousands of food products.

The health risks of trans fats include hart disease, obesity, cancer, clogged arteries, high cholesterol, diabetes, birth defects, allergies in children, etc.

Food manufactures use (partially) hydrogenated oils because it increases the shelf life of their products. This means less spoilage, less loss and therefore more profit! In addition, products with trans fat tend to taste quite good. Trans fats are used in fast food, chips, baked goods, french fries, etc.

Trans fats are produced through the hydrogenation of vegetable oils such as sunflower and soybean oil. During this chemical process hydrogen molecules are added to the oil molecules and the oil becomes solid as is the case with margarine.

When consuming natural fats, it takes the body 18 days to metabolize half of them. When consuming trans fats, it takes the body 51 days to metabolize half of them. This means that half of the trans fats you eat will still be in your body 51 days later! No wonder obesity has become such an epidemic.

Food products will contain trans fat if they include any of the following ingredients: (partially) hydrogenated oil or fat, shortening, margarine.

Butter also contains a small amount of natural trans fat. This is not as harmful as the man-made produced trans fats. However, since butter is an animal-based food it will still cause clogging of the arteries!

Interesterified oils are also unhealthy as they are a mix of fully hydrogenated oils with liquid unsaturated oils. They are NOT labeled as trans fat!

Some foods now contain modified, fractionated or solidified oils. These are produced by mixing fluid unsaturated vegetable oils with solid saturated fats such as palm oil. These oils are not as unhealthy as they are made from natural oils.

Consumers have repeatedly been warned about the health effects of saturated fats, especially saturated animal fats. However, trans fats are much worse!

The healthiest oil for frying and cooking is coconut oil as it remains stable at high temperatures and it does not break down into carcogenic compounds, unlike unsaturated oils such as olive oil. Coconut oil remains stable because it has a high content of saturated fat. So not all saturated fats are bad for you!

Tips for lowering your trans fat intake:

1. Choose liquid vegetable oils, or choose a soft tub margarine that contains little or no trans fats.

2. Avoid eating commercially prepared baked foods such as cookies, pies, donuts, snack foods, fast foods and processed foods. To be safe, assume that all such products contain trans fats unless labeled otherwise.

3. When foods with (partially) hydrogenated oils can not be avoided, choose products that list partially hydrogenated oils near the end of the ingredient list.

4. To avoid trans fats in restaurants, stay away from desserts and deep-fried foods, as many restaurants still use partially hydrogenated oils.

Do your health a big favor and remove this toxic chemical out of your diet!

"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge."
Hosea 4:6 (KJV)

Do you find it difficult to lose weight and live healthy?
The solution is actually quite simple.

Avoid all artificial sweeteners, flavor enhancers and trans fats as they are the main causes of obesity and disease.

Have your dental amalgam silver fillings removed safely(!) as they cause mercury poisoning.

Do no longer use microwaves as they destroy up to 97% of the nutrients and vitamins in your food!

Read the book 'Fit for Life' by Harvey Diamond. This book will transform your life, in fact you'll never have to get on a diet again for the rest of your life!

  • Trans fats occur in the most UNEXPECTED foods, I found trans fat in cough drops, vitamins, chicken broth cubes, and even liquid protein (muscle milk). It is even in medicine, watch out!

  • @Krystle2007 Please accept my friend invite, I would like to send you some useful information.

  • Is it true that Trans Fats stay in your body indefineatley?

  • @ChristewieTV Your body will be able get rid of transfats, but it will take a while!

    When consuming natural fats, it takes the body 18 days to metabolize half of them. When consuming trans fats, it takes the body 51 days to metabolize half of them. This means that half of the trans fats you eat will still be in your body 51 days later! No wonder obesity has become such an epidemic.

    Please check out the text section below this video.

  • @HealthRanger7 If you say the body will get RID of trans fats, does the clogging of the arteries clears up also? If not then is there even ANY way to unclog our arteries without surgery or medication?

  • @rohailrules Yes, you can reverse clogged arteries and most other diseases by eating a plant-based diet.

    To learn more, please watch the short preview of the film ''Eating' on YouTube:

    watch?v=uRWEHjf9Odc

    I will send you a PM with more useful info.

  • If you want to estimate the amount of transfat is in the product, such as 8:32 use this equation that I made myself. Protien and carbs has 4 calories per gram, and fat 9 calories per gram. So total calories minus cal prom protien minus cals from carbs minus cals from fats other than trans fat and the whole thing divided by 9. So for the product in 8:32 it has 130(total cal)-27(cal from fat besides trans)-88(cal from carbs)-8(protien cal)=7 so the product has 7/9 grams of transfat per serving.

  • By the late 1990s,although unsaturated fats were still generally considered by consumers to be healthier than saturated fats,medical wisdom was changing.Resserch began to reveal that trans fats were in fact more harmful to coronary health on a per calorie basis than either saturated or unmodified unsaturated fats.Some official estimates suggest that up to 50,000 deaths from heart disease could be prevented in the US each year if trans fats were removed from the national diet.

  • I'm surprised that some people speak out against trans fat bans because they don't want the government "policing what they eat."

    Are those same people against governments mandating that white bread be enriched with vitamins and folic acid, even though those measures resulted in a dramatic decrease in birth defects and deficiency diseases?

  •  I've heard that trans fats are the WORST food additive for one reason: As smart as our body's waste removal systems are, they cannot tell the difference between natural saturated fats and man-made created trans fats, so it will actually attempt to USE the trans-fats for your cell membranes, so some of your body's cells will actually become partially hydrogenated!

  • @ajhrockerboy6 I can't eat oatmeal. Not the flavor, its the consistency. I do however like granola

  • Trans fat actually does not make the food taste good. It's only there to make food for a longer shelf life which is disgusting if you think about it.

  • @ChristewieTV no. i used to eat like shit too. however if you eat oatmeal everyday, you will clean out your body.

  • Thanks for posting.

  • my cock is 8.7 inches long , hell I dont care about trans fat.

  • @HealthRanger7 Thank you VERY much buddy and stay safe and healthy :)
