My understanding about the risks associated with trans
fatty acid, is that they act similiarly to saturated
fatty acids and can increase cholesterol.
I would not expect any other affects.
Sorry I thought this would be old news to you guys:
The author of this books has clinical evidence to the
contrary.

So what dows this have to do with trans fatty acids? EPA
is not a trans fatty acid.
j.
Sorry for the confusion. No, what is being proposed is that
trans fatty acids in the diet can cause malfunctioning of
the synthetic metabolic pathways for fatty acids
particularly EPA Stress, and pollutant also inhibit these
pathways too apparently.
Basant Puri is suggesting that eating pure EPA (strangely
without DHA for some mysterious but it seems clinically
proven reason) in the diet helps cure a variety of diseases
noteably clinical depression, but also significantly helps
such things as heart disease, ME/CFS, irritable bowl ...and
diabetes. (Hence this posting to a spread of newsgroups.)
He blames trans fatty acids in the western diet as being the
root of all "diseases of civilisation".
Taking his logic one step further I am reliably informed
that it is a fairly recent discovery that more than half of
everything we put on the skin will, given time, end up in
the bloodstream. (Hence the health scares about suntan
lotion, face creams etc in mothers milk).
In a sense Basant Puri is arguing that EPA is almost an anti-
dote to trans fatty acids.
