Why is hydrogenation so appealing that companies will continue to include hydrogenated oils in their products despite the social stigma that trans fats have acquired? If hydrogenation is supposed to produce saturated fats, then why do its byproducts include these undesirable trans unsaturated fats?  Eliminating fat from the diet to decrease health risks, yet many nutrition arguments are being made about the importance and value of fats in a balanced diet.  Discuss these points and how you feel fats can be incorporated into a healthy diet, if at all.

Nutrition and diet

We are involved in several daily activities. These actions need a significant quantity of energy. The food we eat provides this energy. Food is necessary for development, repair, and other living activities since it supplies energy. All of these are part of the living practice known as nutrition. Nutrition is the study of nutrients in food, how the body uses them, and the relationship between diet, health, and disease. Nutritionists employ concepts from molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics to understand how nutrients affect the human body. Nutrition also looks at how people can use their diet to reduce their risk of disease, as well as what happens when they ingest too much or too little of a nutrient and how allergies emerge.
