Do NITRO-TECH bars contain "trans-fat"
I love NITRO-TECH bars because of their taste and protein content. I am trying to figure out whether they contain any significant amounts of "trans-fat". Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks, Sy -- |

Do NITRO-TECH bars contain "trans-fat"
In article , Daniel Witt
wrote: what does the label say? I neglected to mention that the label lists lots of polysyllabic ingredients but no mention of the word "hydrogenated" which I understand is a process which creates "trans-fat". Can "trans-fat" be found in any other form or can I assume there is none in this product? Thanks, Sy -- Please post and reply to |

Can "trans-fat" be found in any other form or can I assume there is none in this product? Are there any fractionated oils in it? I think those also contain trans- fat. Thanks, Sy |

Do NITRO-TECH bars contain "trans-fat"
I just checked the label again and found : " Fractionated Palm Kernel Oil" Can anyone explain how meaningful that is?

... I just checked the label again and found : " Fractionated Palm Kernel Oil" Can anyone explain how meaningful that is? Fractionation is the isolation of a particular part of the oil. They use it to increase or decrease the proportion of certain fatty acids in order to alter the melting point and behavior of the oil and products made from it. I'm not sure exactly how this affects the lipid profile, but it's a physical process and does not produce trans fatty acids. |
