Trans Fats

More against trans fats.

"Obtaining just 2% of total calories from trans fats instead of healthier monounsaturated fats was associated with a doubled risk for this type of infertility.
In addition, each 2% increase in trans fat consumption as a replacement for carbohydrates brought a 73% greater risk of ovulation-related infertility, after adjusting for other known and suspected infertility risk factors, according to the study".

Less than 0.5 grams of trans fats are not required by the FDA to be listed on nutrition labels. Anything with hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils contains trans fats and is unfit for consumption.
