Experts suggest a 'trans fat-free' America

Categories: Nutrition & Supplements

Are trans fats on their way out from all foods in the U.S.? That is the wish y many experts on nutrition and public health these days, and they are calling on food industry leaders to help make it happen.

During the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) meeting this week, conclusions were presented by the 'Trans Fat Free Americas Task Force ' in order to open a dialog into jettisoning that type of processed oil permanently.

Do I see this coming in the next decade? Yes. Many restaurants and food companies already market themselves as "trans fat free" and the continuation of that trend will only grow larger until having trans fat in your products make you the joke of the shelf. It's only a matter of time.
