Data on market size, market share, and compositional changes of various products made from partially hydrogenated fats and oils were used to estimate current, previous, and predicted levels of trans fatty acids in the US diet. Recent literature and various perceptions of the toxicological, physiological, and nutritional effects of trans fatty acids were reviewed. Trans acid availability has changed little during the last 15-20 yr and currently is estimated to be approximately 7.6 g X person-1 X day-1. Modest decreases in total fat intake, including trans fatty acid intake, may occur in the future if consumers adopt certain dietary recommendations. We believe that concerns about possible relationships of trans fatty acids to development of atherosclerotic disease or cancer are not supported by reliable data. Numerous literature accounts support the conclusion that trans fatty acids do not pose any harm to humans or animals consuming a balanced diet containing adequate linoleic acid.
利用部分氢化油脂制成的各类产品的市场规模、市场份额及成分变化数据，来估算美国饮食中反式脂肪酸的当前、先前及预测水平。对近期文献以及关于反式脂肪酸毒理学、生理学和营养效应的各种观点进行了综述。在过去15至20年中，反式脂肪酸的摄入量变化不大，目前估计约为每人每天7.6克。如果消费者采纳某些饮食建议，未来总脂肪摄入量（包括反式脂肪酸摄入量）可能会适度下降。我们认为，关于反式脂肪酸与动脉粥样硬化疾病或癌症发生之间可能存在关联的担忧，并无可靠数据支持。众多文献记载支持这样的结论：对于食用含有充足亚油酸的均衡饮食的人类或动物而言，反式脂肪酸不会造成任何危害。
