Trans fats have been directly linked to heart disease and raising bad cholesterol.
After closely scrutinizing data from scientific studies and reviews, many European countries have either banned hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils altogether or have instituted future dates for elimination of their use in foods.
These government actions concerning the trans fatty acids (hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils) is directly related to studies that link trans fatty acid (hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oil) consumption from processed foods to the development of diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular disease.
We, the undersigned, call on the United Stated to eliminate Hydrogenated Oils from our food. We are poisoning our people knowingly. NY has taken action, and this action should be recognized nationally.
