I don't eat any trans fat because I don't eat out anywhere,all food is made or prepared in mi casa. What is it about trans fats that makes them so bad? I see stuff on the news "BAN TRANS FAT" and so on. I just want to learn,knowledge is power. Anyone care to elaborate?
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
What are these trans fats?

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

Big risk factor for coronary heart disease. Check out the wikipedia article, for example, which goes into quite a bit of depth while remaining fairly readable.

I went through all the foods that I thought would have them,margarine,refried beans and my microwavable South Beach Diet foods,no trans to be found.:woo:Mjazz said:Just because you eat food from your house dosent mean its trans fat free man, do a thourough check and some thinking, you will probably find something
just fyi 0 grams of transfat doesn't mean none, it can also mean less than 1/2 gram per serving (in the US anyhow). it's being taken out of a lot of stuff, but the only way to be sure is to make sure the ingredients don't refer to partially hydrogenated oil.

Think of essential fatty acids as very long delicate chains of molecules. When these are heated up they become broken and disfigured like a foreign glue-like substance. This substance does not occur in nature and is very dangerous to ingest. Eating these fats is like putting poison in your system. Trans-fats or hydrogenated oils are probably responsible for 99% of all cancers.blinkwatt said:I don't eat any trans fat because I don't eat out anywhere,all food is made or prepared in mi casa.

Things that you don't want in your diet are: Margarine, fried foods, pastries, anything that says hydrogenated oil on it.
huh? that doesn't even begin to make sense.wheelin&dealin said:Trans-fats or hydrogenated oils are probably responsible for 99% of all cancers.
most of the substances we ingest do not occur in nature. we invented this thing called cooking that changes most of them. not everything artificial that we do to food causes cancer.This substance does not occur in nature and is very dangerous to ingest.
trans fats are not linked to cancer (though I wouldn't rule it out), they're linked to heart disease. partial hydrogenation takes normal liquid oil fat and turns part of it into solid saturated fat, but leaves behind some other fats that have been changed into something that doesn't occur in nature. we've figured out that substance (trans fat) is linked to heart disease (and maybe other stuff, but no one has shown it yet).
Fully hydrogenated oils have become saturated fat, the kind you mostly find with animal flesh, and no one has shown that the artificial process used to get there has any ill effects.
