Avoid, avoid, avoid trans fats. Denmark banned them in 2003

Hi Community.

With COVID19 studies clearly highlighting the considerable increase in risk of mortality in people who are obese, we must take personal responsibility from an informed and compassionate place to take care of our own health.

The UK (and the US) fall far behind on banning trans fats in the commercial food chain. So please empower yourself to check ingredients if you do buy packet food.

WHO expands on this and there is a drive to get these ingredients out by 2023. My opinion is it needs to be sooner given we are 17 years on from Denmark's ban and knew all the evidence on the impact on health of these ingredients.
