Crispy bread contains the highest amount of fatty acids
Trans fatty acid = margarine
In real life, trans fatty acids are margarine or margarine. It is made from hydrogenation of ordinary vegetable oil. After hydrogenation, the vegetable oil changes from a liquid state to a solid or semi-solid oil. In this process, the combination of hydrogen molecules and carbon molecules changes from cis to trans, becoming trans fatty acids.

"This treatment method came from the United States. Its role is to prevent vegetable oil from deteriorating, facilitate storage, and improve the look and taste." Liu Na said that natural cream butter comes from animal fat, and margarine butter comes from plants. Its taste is the same as natural. Due to its high melting point, no matter how high the temperature is when fried, it will not smoke and remain black. The fried food is crisp and crisp, and has a pleasant aroma, which is easy to apply on bread and can extend the shelf life of food. Because of its low cost, trans fatty acids are adopted by many food manufacturers.
Trans fatty acids cause cardiovascular disease
After trans fatty acids were widely used in the United States for a period of time, researchers found that many people developed symptoms of arteriosclerosis and increased cardiovascular disease. The reason is that this is closely related to excessive intake of trans fatty acids. Because trans fatty acids are not easily cleared after entering blood vessels, their harm is higher than any animal oil.
"In addition to destroying the cardiovascular system, trans fatty acids can also affect the immune system and induce breast cancer, diabetes, tumors, asthma, allergies and other diseases." Liu Na said that foods containing trans fatty acids should not be eaten by children, otherwise it will affect their growth and development and damage the health of the nervous system. Trans-fatty acids can be absorbed by the fetus through the placenta and by newborn babies through breast milk, which will affect the child's absorption of essential fatty acids.
Liu Na of the Nutrition and Health Center said that research has shown that trans fatty acids are 3-5 times more likely to cause cardiovascular disease than saturated fatty acids. The safety line for its intake is: only 2-5 grams of trans fatty acids can be found per 100 grams of oil.
Low-priced sorbet has high trans fatty acid content
At present, my country has not yet stipulated the content of trans fatty acids on food packaging. Liu Na teaches you some ways to identify this "bad guy": If the outer packaging of biscuits, cakes and other foods is marked with names such as "Palm Oil Containing","Vegetable Hydrogenated Oil","Margarine","Artificial Fat","Hydrogenated Oil","Shortening","Refining", etc., you must realize that they all actually contain trans fatty acids.
"Trans-fatty acids are found in common biscuits, cream cakes, cream breads, crisp bread, egg yolk pie, puffs, crackers, instant noodles, oil bags for instant soup, doughnuts, chocolate, salad dressing, potato chips, French fries, fried potato chips, fried chicken nuggets, fried milk, custard buns, pumpkin pie, coffee companions, ice cream and other foods."

Liu Na especially reminded girls who love to eat cold drinks that they should not eat sorbet just for the sake of being cheap. Ice cream sorbet that costs about one yuan that is as much as wax in their mouths has a high content of trans fatty acids. In addition, the types of food packaging ingredients are labeled according to the content. If the above names appear in front of the ingredient label, it can be inferred that the trans fatty acid content is high. Editor in charge: Sweet
