Answer 2

• monounsaturated fat

• trans fat

Step-by-step explanation:

Food labels should contain the amounts of trans fats and monounsaturated fats.

Trans fat is the transformation of vegetable oil into solid fat. Also known as hydrogenated oil, trans fat is found mainly in processed foods as it serves to give crispness and consistency to foods. In the body, trans fat causes harm to health: obesity, increase in bad cholesterol and decrease in good cholesterol, difficulty in the blood flow through the arteries, diabetes, ease of inflammation, breast cancer and others, so it is important that the amounts of trans fat are stated on the product label.

Monounsaturated fats are a type of unsaturated fat characterized by the presence of only a double bond between carbons (C = C) in their chain. They are generally liquid at room temperature, although they are more viscous than polyunsaturated fats and tend to be solid when cooled. Monounsaturated fats are generally good for health and are often indicated as possible substitutes for saturated fats in order to reduce the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease, lowering bad cholesterol levels, among others. For this reason, the amount of monounsaturated fats must be exposed on labels.
