Eminyakeni emibili eyedlule, lapho i-U.S. Food and Drug Administration (i-FDA) imemezela ukuthi bacabanga ngokuxosha amafutha asuka ekudleni okucutshunguliwe, sajabula kakhulu kepha sathula kakhulu ukuze singayisebenzisi i-jinx. Izolo, nokho, i-FDA imemezele ukuthi iqhubekela phambili ngokusemthethweni nohlelo lokuhlanza amashalofu ezitolo ezinkulu. Amafutha ayingxenye ye-hydrogenated (PHOs), umthombo oyinhloko wamafutha ekudleni okucutshungulwayo, ngokusemthethweni awasekho "njengokwaziwa njengokuphephile," noma i-GRAS. (I-hydr-what? I-Mystery Food Additives and Ingredients ukusuka ku-A ukuya ku-Z.)

"Lokhu kuzimisela kusekelwe ocwaningweni olunzulu ngemiphumela yama-PHOs, kanye nemibono evela kubo bonke ababambiqhaza abayitholile ngesikhathi sokuphawula komphakathi [phakathi kwesimemezelo sokucatshangelwa nesinqumo sokugcina]," kusho uSusan Mayne, Ph.D., umqondisi we Isikhungo se-FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition. Futhi lolo cwaningo luyakholisisa: Ucwaningo lukhombisile ukuthi ukudla amafutha amaningi kwandisa ingozi yesifo senhliziyo, kukhuphula amazinga amabi we-cholesterol, kwehlisa amazinga amahle e-cholesterol, futhi ngisho, ngokusho kocwaningo olusha sha, kuyaphazamisa inkumbulo yakho.

Kepha yini i-heck trans fat ozoqala ngayo? Iwumkhiqizo we-PHOs futhi wenziwa ngenqubo ethumela i-hydrogen ngowoyela, okubangela ukuthi lena yakamuva ishintshe ukujiya, umbala, futhi ibe isiqinile. Lesi sithako saseFrankenstein sinikeza ukudla okucutshunguliwe impilo eshalofini ende futhi kuthinta ukunambitheka nokwakheka.

Noma i-FDA ilinganisela ukuthi iphesenti labantu abadla amafutha athengisiwe lehle cishe ngamaphesenti angama-78 phakathi kuka-2003 no-2012, lesi sinqumo sizoqinisekisa ukuthi amaphesenti angama-22 asele awatholakali ezintweni ezinobuthi-ikakhulukazi uma kubhekwa imihlahlandlela yamanje yokulebula round noma yini engaphansi kuka-0.5g / ukukhonza ize ifike kuziro, okwenza kubonakale sengathi amazinga aphansi awekho ekudleni kwakho. (Ingabe Uwela Lawa Amanga Elebula Yokudla Ayi-10?)

Manje yini ezonambitha ngokuhlukile eshalofini lesitolo esikhulu? Ukudla okuthinteke kakhulu kuzoba yizimpahla ezibhakiwe ezibhokisiwe (njengamakhukhi, amakhekhe, namaphayi afriziwe), ukudla okufrijiwe okususelwa enhlama (njengamabhisikidi kanye nemiqulu yesinamoni), ukuthwathwa okusemathinini, ukumanzisa ama-margarine, ama-popcorn ama-microwave, kanye nokhilimu bekhofi-ngokuyisisekelo, konke lokho kunambitheka okumnandi ngokungakholeki futhi kunosuku lokuphelelwa yisikhathi okungenangqondo.

Izinkampani zineminyaka emithathu yokuqeda konke ukusetshenziswa kwama-PHO ekudleni kwazo, okusho ukuthi akudingeki ukhathazeke ngokufaka izinto ngephutha ngo-2018.
