Medics call for ban on trans-fats in UK food

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8622723.stm


	Quote: Calls to ban trans-fats from all foods in the UK have been backed by US public health experts. Trans-fats - solid fats found in margarines, cakes and fast food - are banned in some countries.

Some years ago the problem was highlighted and Flora used to put virtually free of trans fats on their containers. Now it is gone. Like it is a non issue.

	Quote: But the Food Standards Agency said the UK's low average consumption made a complete ban unnecessary.

It does become confusing for consumers all the differing advice. :shock:
