You can avoid any danger by eliminating from the trans fatty acid diet all margarine and solid vegetable shortening and products made from them, all products listing "partially hydrogenated" trans fatty acid oil of any kind on the label, and all commercial brands of polyunsaturated vegetable oils (corn, soy, sesame, sunflower and safflower), since these have been extracted with heat and solvents that promote the formation of TFA's.... Vegetable oils that are predominantly monounsaturated - olive, canola, peanut, avocado - do not pose the cardiovascular risk of saturated fats or the cancer risks of polyunsaturates." A trans fatty acid side note - a toxic mold, called aflatoxin, is commonly found in peanuts, corn and soy. If you do use peanuts or peanut oil, please make sure it is aflatoxin free. Also, canola is a very very dangerous oil for humans and pets. If you would like some more info on canola please ask:) So we have learned which types of oils (olive, peanut and avocado) are good for us and our pets, as well as the typical extraction methods (the ways to get the oil out of the seed) like chemical solvents (usually hexane) and heat are bad.
