Trans Fat Ban - good, but not enough

From ABC7News.com ---

Trans fats are on their way out in Montgomery County restaurants. Beginning Tuesday, restaurants will have to stop using margarines, frying oils and other food products that contain more than one-half gram of trans fat per serving. Next year, oils and spreads will have to be trans fat free, as will baked goods and prepared dishes. A total ban on trans fats goes into effect in 2010.

Montgomery is the first jurisdiction in the Washington area to place limits on trans fats, which have been linked to health problems. Cities like New York and Philadelphia already have their own bans in place. Restaurant owners say they will have to spend more to replace items on their menus, like switching from margarine to butter

The Calgary region is to become the first in the country to require restaurants to cut the use of trans fats, suspected of killing up to 5,000 Canadians a year from heart disease. Starting Jan. 1, the regional health authority — which serves more than 1.2 million people — will require that all margarines, spreads made with margarine and oils used for cooking contain a maximum of two per cent trans fats of the total fat content.

The health consequences made it imperative that the Calgary Health Region act now, said Dr. Brent Friesen, medical officer of health.

Trans fats raise the levels of low-density lipoprotein, or "bad" cholesterol, in the body and can lead to clogged arteries and heart disease.

The Heart & Stroke Foundation has estimated that consumption of trans fats accounts for 3,000 to 5,000 deaths in Canada a year. Read more...

Comments: While a ban on trans fats seem a little anticlimatic after years of research has shown the harmful effects from its consumption, nonetheless we seem some bans on its use in some areas.
