American propaganda slogan of hydrogenated vegetable oil

It is not self-contradictory, because "hydrogenated vegetable oil", that is, vegetable cream, shortening and so on. , can not be completely equivalent to trans fatty acids, and hydrogenated vegetable oil with improved technology can reduce trans fatty acids or even contain no trans fatty acids.

hydrogenated vegetable oil

Hydrogenated vegetable oil is a kind of artificial oil, including creamer, non-dairy creamer, margarine, cocoa butter substitute and so on. It is made from ordinary vegetable oil by adding hydrogen at a certain temperature and pressure. Hydrogenated vegetable oil has increased hardness, maintained solid shape, enhanced plasticity, fusion and emulsification, and can make food more crisp. At the same time, it can prolong the shelf life of food, so it is widely used in food processing.

Hydrogenated vegetable oil is not equal to trans fatty acid: Zhu Nianlin, chairman of China Bakery and Sugar Products Industry Association, said: Consumers don't have to talk about the discoloration of hydrogenated vegetable oil. As of 20 10, consumers have two misunderstandings:

One is "hydrogenated vegetable oil", that is, vegetable cream, shortening and so on. , can not be completely equivalent to trans fatty acids. The hydrogenated vegetable oil with improved process can reduce trans fatty acids, even without trans fatty acids.

Second, the content of "trans fatty acids" in food should be limited, but the use of hydrogenated vegetable oil should not be banned. In the United States and Denmark, there are no restrictions on the use of hydrogenated vegetable oil. It is only recommended that the average daily intake of trans fatty acids should not exceed 1% of total energy.

The quality of different brands of hydrogenated vegetable oil is obviously different, and the processing technology of hydrogenated vegetable oil needs to be improved. Food processing enterprises should also develop new ways, but this needs a process. There are hydrogenated soybean oil, hydrogenated palm oil and hydrogenated coconut oil in the market, ranging from 20 10. Through enzyme or chemical catalyst, formula adjustment and improvement of hydrogenation process, the content of trans fatty acids can be reduced to some extent. If the vegetable oil is completely hydrogenated, the transition from liquid to solid is completed. You can achieve almost zero trans fatty acid content. The problem is that completely hydrogenated vegetable oil can be used to make vegetable cream, shortening and so on. And a thick layer can't be painted at all.
