The Truth Behind Slim Arms And Trans Fats

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

By now you probably know that so called healthy fats help you burn arm fat. But did you know that one type of fat is responsible for an abnormally high amount of deaths every year? Which one is it you ask? Trans fatty acids.

How was this killer born? Well, during the 1900's a couple chemists figured out that hydrogenation extended the shelf life of vegetable oils. Too bad they didn't know how much damage their new discovery would cause.

Trans fats became the single nutrient responsible for the highest amount of annual deaths in the United States.

Trans fats mess up your cellular machinery so much that getting slim and thin arms is virtually impossible if they're in your diet. I don't care how hard you train.

And here are 4 more reasons to stay away from these Franken fats:

1. They are responsible for tens of thousands of deaths every year. How many? According to the most conservative estimates from Harvard University, about 30,000. Think about that for a minute. A single nutrient is responsible for tens of thousands of deaths every single year. Mind boggling.

2. No amount of consumption is ok. Food industry buffs say it's ok to have a little in your diet. But the brightest minds from Harvard and Stanford say that no level of intake is safe. I think you should listen to the academics

3. They increase triglyceride levels. Triglycerides are the storage form of arm fat within your body. Do you think increasing their level will help you get thin and slim arms? Absolutely not!

4. They increase the worst type of LDL. Not all cholesterol is created equal. And trans fatty acids increase the worst kind: dense LDL particles. So if you want slim arms please stay away from the Franken fat.

Now the purpose of this article is NOT to scare you. I believe that too many health experts have hopped onto the "lets scare them into buying our product" bandwagon. I simply want to inform you about how bad trans fats are. Not only will they prevent you from getting slim and thin arms, but they will also decrease your quality of life more so than any other nutrient on the planet. - 17269
