In 2018, @WHO set an ambitious global goal to eliminate artificial trans fat by 2023. Despite significant progress, five billion people remain unprotected from this toxic substance in their food supply today. The world still has a way to go—countries must take action.
@WHO Trans fat, put into packaged foods, baked goods, cooking oils and spreads, kills up to half a million people per year.
@WHO Since #REPLACEtransfat was launched, 2.8 billion more people have been protected, including recently in Argentina, India, Bangladesh, and Oman. This is a great start, but many countries with the highest trans fat burden have yet to act.
