<<<ranging from semiconductor fabrication and the """"hydrogenation of food oils""" to
petrochemical and glass manufacturing.>>>

This(hydrogenated food oil) sounds like an energizing food ingredient. Well hydrogenated food oils give baked goods a 20 year shelf life before the oils in them turn rancid-good? Well, hydrogenated oils and partially hydrogenated oils also known as trans-fatty acids are completely unnatural to the human body, the body doesn't have any idea how to break them down effectively, they clog-up the cell walls resulting in all kinds of conditions associated with the superhormones eicoanoids imbalances like coronary heart disease for starters. It takes the body 20 days to rid itself of detrimental hydrogenated oils if you eliminate them from your diet. Margerine is the commonest food to include them as a basic ingredient which is why the American Heart Association sheepishly doesn't mention margerine as a heart healthy food anymore after 20 years of recommending it. Europe bans them from use in at least margerine. They are produced by a process of intense heat and nickel. Only cook with olive oil or high oleic safflower oils to prevent the heat from converting the cooking oil to partially hydrogenated oil. Trust your fast food restaurant to fry your fries in high oleic safflower oil do you?

By the way vegetable oils are a product of the petrochemical industry invented by a man called "Wesson". It has 99% of the gasoline removed from it to be classified as a food grade product. I'll take cold pressed natural and monounstaurated olive oil thank you! It is neutral in effect on your vitally important eicosanoid balance and gives needed fat calories without doing harm.

I look forward to the day when I don't have to strain my eyes looking at the ingredient disclosure to avoid eating harmful hydrogenated oils. Maybe one day our governmental representatives will spend as much time protecting its constituents from everyday hazards as it does spending their tax dollars protecting certain special interest groups that regularly poison their bodies?
