Trans fat is present in chips, biscuits, and snacks

Let us tell you that trans fat is used in biscuits or snacks so that they do not spoil for a long time and can be eaten with pleasure.
Why is trans fat dangerous?
Know that desi ghee and butter are not trans fat but refined oil which has been fried more than three times becomes a trans fat. Trans fat increases bad cholesterol in the body. The worse thing is that by taking more amount of trans fats, the good cholesterol present in the body i.e. essential fat also starts converting into bad cholesterol. Trans fats have a big role in giving heart disease to Indians.

Trans fats shorten the lives of 5 billion people
According to the latest WHO report, trans fats have reduced the life of 5 billion people in the world and they are living with the risk of heart disease. In 2018, efforts were made to reduce trans fats from food and to eliminate trans fats from foods by 2023. However, now 43 countries have moved forward in this matter. In 2022, India has also joined this list.
Let us now also know what should be the amount of trans fat in these products. According to WHO standards, the number of trans fats should not be more than 2 grams per 100 grams. WHO also says that canned refined oil which has a high amount of hydrogen should be banned. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India has implemented these rules in January 2022, but it cannot be said how many products sold in the market follow these standards.
