This policy is meant to address the high consumption of trans fat, which increases the risk of developing coronary heart disease and other diseases.
MANILA, Philippines – The use of trans fat in prepackaged processed food products is now banned in the country starting Monday, June 19.
The FDA said that all product formulations and labels of prepackaged processed food containing trans fat must be fully compliant with their guidelines. Foods like margarine, coffee creamer, and baked goods such as donuts and cookies are typically rich in industrial trans fat, according to the World Health Organization.
On Monday, health advocates from different sectors launched Bantay Kontra Trans Fat as an initiative to make sure that food manufacturers will comply with the DOH and FDA’s programs to eliminate trans fat.
