Trans-fat blood levels fall after FDA food-labeling regs
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: The amount of trans fat in the American bloodstream fell by more than half after the Food and Drug Administration required food manufacturers to label how much of the unhealthful ingredient is in their products, according to a new study.
Blood levels of trans fat declined 58 percent from 2000 to 2008. FDA began requiring trans-fat labeling in 2003. During the same period several parts of the nation, New York most famously, passed regulations limiting trans fats in restaurant food and cooking. Processed-food makers also voluntarily replaced trans fats with less harmful oils.
