Health Tip:
Understanding Trans Fats
(Health Day News) -- Trans fats, also called hydrogenated fats, are
man-made compounds, that are made from processed liquid oils, common in margarine and
shortening (butter). These harmful fats will raise bad
cholesterol, and could lower a person's good cholesterol levels.
Because these fats are so thick and stiff, they can also clog up
arteries and blood vessels, which can lead to heart attack or
stroke, says the University of Maryland Medical Center.
Trans fats are commonly found in processed foods such as potato chips, cookies, doughnuts, cakes and many fast
foods. You can avoid trans fats by choosing natural, healthy foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grain breads and cereals.
Check ingredient labels for hydrogenated fats, and try to avoid
those foods.
