Trans fatty acids in diets at acceptable levels

Trans fatty acids pose much less of a threat to Chinese people than the public has been led to believe, a national-level food safety center said on Monday.

Starting 2011, the China National Center for Food Safety Risk Assessment assessed Chinese consumption of TFA in response to concerns about its levels in Chinese diets.

The study found that Chinese intake of the unsaturated fat is much lower than the limit recommended by the World Health Organization.
