In Denmark in June 2003, they effectively banned transfats?

Question

By passing a law that made it illegal for any food to contain more than two percent of transfat.

Now three years later, hardly anyone notices the difference. The french fries are still crispy. The pastries are still scrumptious. And the fried chicken is still tasty.

The Danish health ministry reports only real difference seems to be that cardiovascular disease has dropped by 20 percent.

Wouldn't this be something worth considering in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines?

Answer 1

Ban it, ban it, ban it.

You have to read the whole report though.

However they have noticed that reducing transfats also reduces obesity and anything that reduces obesity in my opinion can only be a good thing.

Ban it.

Not just in Saint Vincent but everywhere.

Answer 2

I was looking at the question and though I saw "In Denmark in June 2003, they effectively banned transvestites?"......I'm sorry.......I think banning trans fats would be a good idea in any country.....since cardiovascular disease is showing up in younger people now.....for example, I'm in my early 30's and I am in Stage 1 hypertension.........so I think that banning trans fats would be an excellent idea regardless of the island you're in....

Answer 3

I think it would probably be good if it was the law everywhere.
