Abstract

Unsaturated fats known as trans fats have been connected to a number of health issues, including cardiovascular disease. They can also be made through the hydrogenation of vegetable oils and are present in many processed and fried meals. By 2023, industrial trans fats should no longer be present in the world's food supply, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO), which launched the REPLACE policy framework in 2018. By 2022, trans fats should no longer be present in food, according to the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI). In order to inform consumers about the health concerns connected with trans fats, the FSSAI has established limitations on the amount of trans fats that are permitted in edible oils and fats encouraged the use of better cooking oils, and started public awareness campaigns.
