Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best way for David to avoid trans fats is by avoiding any food listing "hydrogenated" or "partially hydrogenated oils" in the ingredients. These terms indicate the presence of trans fats in the food. Purchasing foods labeled "0 trans fats per serving" is helpful for identifying foods without trans fats, but it is not always accurate. Stick margarine may also contain trans fats, and consuming reduced-fat snack foods does not necessarily mean they are free of trans fats.
