It’s even worse than that. The FDA has determined that trans fats have zero nutritional value; the body can’t break them down. They basically sit in your liver until you die.
I mean think about it logically, if I only eat several kg of trans fats a day I’ll die of starvation? That doesn’t pass the sniff test.
“They basically sit in your liver until you die” - so if I eat 1lb of trans fats a week at the end of a year I’ll be 52lbs heavier and my liver will be the size of a toddler?
Maybe the body can’t efficiently use them like it does other fats for hormone production and such but they definitely count as calories and they’re definitely not just chilling anywhere in your body till you die.

That sounds like BS.

That would be why they’re illegal now, yeah…
They’re illegal because people ballooned up to hundreds of pounds all stored in the liver??? How’d I miss that??
Come on, they’re unhealthy and not considered safe anymore but the stuff you said just isn’t true.
It is true.
