5. Conclusion
TFA levels in bakery products and other processed foods in Sweden have decreased between 1995–97 and 2007. The reduction started in the early 1990s with margarines, and, since 2001 the levels in most products have been reduced. A few products sampled in 2007 in this study contained more than 2 g TFA/100 g of fat. However, the TFA content is in general low, and does not cause a health problem today for the general Swedish population. In most products, TFAs have been replaced by SFAs, even if some products showed increased PUFA levels. The general advice to limit consumption of energy-dense foods high in added fat and sugars is still an important message to improve dietary habits.
