New research from the United States shows that regular dietary trans fats make people aggressive

It is an indisputable fact that trans fats are harmful to health. A new study in the United States shows that eating foods containing trans fats makes people irritated and aggressive. Researchers suggest that, in particular, do not give minors foods containing trans fats.

The more you eat, the more aggressive you are.

Researchers at the University of California, San Diego, Department of Medicine surveyed 945 men and women for changes in trans fat intake and behavior. They found that people who eat trans fat-based foods are more aggressive regardless of age.

The researchers asked the research subjects about the attack history, attack methods, self-evaluation, irritability, etc., and used “external attack behavior” criteria to comprehensively consider the subjects’ gender, age, education level, whether they smoked, whether they were drinking, and other factors. After reaching the above conclusions.

The research report was published in the latest issue of the "Science Public Library Comprehensive Volume" magazine. Research leader Beatrice Golom said: "We have found that there is a clear correlation between more trans fats and stronger offensiveness. Among the judging factors, more than other known aggressive predictors are known. Multiple trans fats always herald aggressiveness and irritability."

Suggest school, prison review recipes

Trans fats are also known as trans fatty acids, trans fats. Some of the crispy fats, margarines, and edible oils used in frying may contain trans fats. Vegetable oils such as soybean oil are also prone to trans fat.

The trans fat name comes from its reverse molecular structure, which is not easily kinked. Artificial trans fats are more resistant to high temperatures, are less susceptible to deterioration, and are stored for a longer period of time than ordinary vegetable oils. Therefore, foods containing trans fats not only have a good taste, but are also conducive to preservation. Trans fats are commonly found in fast food production processes such as biscuits, bread, cakes, and chips.

Golom, therefore, suggested that schools and prison administrations should review the recipes to ensure that the food provided does not cause the eater to attack.

It is recommended to eat no more than 2.5 grams per day

Previous studies have shown that trans fats increase cholesterol levels in people and cause obesity, diabetes, inflammation, cardiovascular disease, and tumors.

A study released last year in Spain showed that eating foods containing large amounts of trans fats and saturated fats increases the risk of depression. After a six-year follow-up of the diet and lifestyle of more than 12,000 European volunteers, the researchers found that volunteers who increased trans fat intake had a 48% increased risk of depression compared with those who did not.

Another study published by US researchers earlier this year showed that trans fats damage the brain and accelerate brain aging. The researchers analyzed blood samples of 104 healthy elderly people with an average age of 87 years. They found that the transfusion fatty acids in the blood of the elderly who scored the lowest in the memory and thinking tests were more; brain scans showed that their brains were smaller. The World Health Organization recommends no more than 2.5 grams of trans fat per day in the diet.
