The food industry fought tooth and nail to retain partially hydrogenated oils, even though they were killing 50,000 Americans a year. Subscribe to NutritionFacts.org's free e-newsletter and receive a recipe from Dr. Greger's brand-new cookbook, The How Not to Diet Cookbook: https://nutritionfacts.org/subscribe/ Once added trans fats are banned, the only major source in the American diet will be the natural trans fats found in animal fat. More on this in next video: Banning Trans Fat in Processed Foods but Not Animal Fat (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/Banning-Trans-Fat-in-Processed-Foods-but-Not-Animal-Fat), an update on my earlier video Trans Fat in Meat and Dairy (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/trans-fat-in-meat-and-dairy/).
