- On June 16, 2015, the FDA announced partially hydrogenated oils (a primary source of trans fat) will no longer be allowed in food unless authorized by the agency, due to their health risks
- The new regulation will take effect in 2018. According to the FDA, this change may help prevent around 20,000 heart attacks and 7,000 heart disease deaths each year
- The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) applauds the ban, despite being instrumental in getting the food industry to swap healthy saturated fats for trans fats in the 1980’s
