This lengthens the shelf life, so it’s ideal for restaurants and food manufacturers. However, the body treats hydrogenated fat like saturated fat,which is known to clog arteries, raise your cholesterol, and increase your risk of heart disease and other conditions. Trans fat not only raises your LDL (bad) cholesterol, but it actually lowers to HDL cholesterol as well!</span></p> <p style="text-align: center"><span style="color: Black"></span></p><p></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #ff8c00">Directions:-</span></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 18px"></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 18px"></span><span style="color: #00bfff"><span style="font-size: 15px">-Also, if an item in the store says 0 grams of trans fat, it might not be 0.
