oil as an ingredient, such as commercially produced baked goods.
Trans fat is the world's most unhealthy fat!

Foods
to avoid include bacon, beef, butter, full-fat dairy products, coconut
oil, ice cream, lard, palm oil anpork. Read food labels, aiming
for less than 15-25 grams of saturated fat daily.

Better
Health was founded in 1958 by a group of ordinary, yet extraordinary,
citizens who were concerned that the indigent could not afford their medications.
From that simple starting point Better Health has bridged the gap in healthcare
for 51 years. One of these founders, Ruth Peters, served as Executive
Director for the first 25 years, providing assistance from her home!
In 1992, Better Health named its highest volunteer award in her honor.
Her life spanned the gamut from the Army Nurse Corps during World War
II in India to one of the top five North Carolina Senior Citizen Jaycees
in 1987.
