Presence of trans fatty acids containing ingredients in pre-packaged foods in Australia in 2018.

Conclusions and implications for public health: Compared to other countries, the use of iTFA-containing ingredients is low in Australia, but repeated exposure to products containing iTFA could still put consumers at risk of excessive consumption. Legislation to eliminate iTFA should be considered to minimise the exposure to these harmful chemicals. PMID: 32776668 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
