Why do you think "trans fats" are bad? I think hydrogenated oils are better than non-hydrogenated ones of the same variety (although natural saturated versions are going to be superior to both).uhmm I can think of trans fat hydrogenated oils,
"Trans Fats" are thought to be bad because they act like "Saturated Fats." I tend to think any bad effects of partially hydrogenated oils are from the remaining PUFA, and not from the Trans Fats themselves. I think they were likely a marker for higher PUFA intake, at least from the 60s-90s, when most of those studies were conducted.
