The other thing about hydrogenated oils that I have been reading and have found research on is when the FDA got involved in labeling "trans fats"....it only requires for them to label a gram or more....so, if there is less than a gram in one serving...it can still say "0 grams of Trans Fat!" But here is the "CATCH 22"....if you eat more than one serving....or eat several types of trans-fat-free products thruout your day....you are still getting trans fats....all those less than 1gm add up!!! I'm reading all sort of labels...you can't rely on the Nutritional facts...you have to look at the ingredients.
As for me...I'm going to steer very very clear of the Hydrogenated Oils! You can read more here.

Healthy food?? Healthy life?? - (& The Great Physician's RX: for Health & Wellness)
I've been bombarded with 'poison' disguised as 'healthfood.' Who would have thought that products stuffed with chemicals - and just as much or more sugar than candy bars, would end up on the list of foods we should ingest for a healthy lifestyle?
Do you know what TRANS FAT is??? AND...just because it says, "NO TRANS FAT" doesn't necessarily mean there is NO TRANSFAT!! ~ this is sooo wrong....
I am committing not to a diet - but taking responsibity for my Health & Wellness....I will no longer pretend I don't care what is in the food I'm eating...I will be fully responsible and aware. Ignorant no more!
I'm reading, The Great Physicians Rx (Jordan Rubin)....wow! I am glad it's a practicle approach...and it just doesn't jump right on in! Its a HUGE commitment...but, I'm starting with "49 days of Wellness"
Thanks to my girls in the Genesis Team for your support and love in this endeavor of my life...I am extremely touched by who you all show up to be in life ! Wow...what powerful women you are!
