<pre>Dear All

Canola oil is here to stay, at least in our lifetime. Most virgin seed
oils including from canola have little trans fatty acid. However during
processing, especially if hydrogenation is used, the trans fatty acid
content increases. Hydrogenated seed oils are used in margarine
manufacture so these margarines have increased levels of trans fatty
acids.

When consumed in the diet trans fatty acids have similar effects on
cholesterol as saturated fatty acids. Their role in possibly inducing
cancer is less clear, however the food people try and stress the fact
when their food has no trans-fatty acids.
