Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) banned added trans fats in most foods in 2018. This was due to the harmful effects that trans fats can have on heart health, including increasing levels of LDL cholesterol (often referred to as "bad" cholesterol) and increasing the risk of heart disease. Saturated, polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, and essential fats are still allowed in food products.
