Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Trans fats are known to raise LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and lower HDL (good) cholesterol levels. They are commonly found in foods made with partially hydrogenated oils, and their intake should be kept as low as possible. Therefore, the statement that trans fats raise HDL levels is not true. Trans fats have been shown to increase LDL levels (the "bad" cholesterol) and decrease HDL levels (the "good" cholesterol). Therefore, option D is not true. Options A, B, and C are all true.
