Your body needs healthy dietary fat to function properly. However, were you aware that one type of fat is hidden in many foods and causes a high amount of deaths every year? This killer is called trans fat.
Not too long ago some chemists discovered a way to extend the freshness of cooking oils. Their novel method was called hydrogenation. If only they knew what would come in the years to follow with their trans fatty acids
And they became the number one nutrient responsible for the largest amount of deaths in U.S. history.
Because of the effect trans fats have on your metabolism, it’s almost impossible to get thin and slim arms if they’re in your diet. Regardless of how hard you train, they will blunt your efforts.
And here are 4 more reasons to stay away from these Franken fats:
1. They are responsible for tens of thousands of deaths every year. How many? According to the most conservative estimates from Harvard University, about 30,000. Think about that for a minute. A single nutrient is responsible for tens of thousands of deaths every single year. Mind boggling.
2. There is no safe level of intake. The food industry would have you believe that 40 calories per day of trans fat will have NO negative impact on your health or arms. Yet Harvard and Stanford research has clearly proven otherwise.
3. They increase triglyceride levels. Triglycerides are the storage form of arm fat within your body. Do you think increasing their level will help you get thin and slim arms? Absolutely not!
4. They increase the worst type of LDL. Not all cholesterol is created equal. And trans fatty acids increase the worst kind: dense LDL particles. So if you want slim arms please stay away from the Franken fat.
Now the purpose of this article is NOT to scare you. I believe that too many health experts have hopped onto the “lets scare them into buying our product” bandwagon. I simply want to inform you about how bad trans fats are. Not only will they prevent you from getting slim and thin arms, but they will also decrease your quality of life more so than any other nutrient on the planet.
