There should be no vegetable cream in Wedomei’s cakes.

Vegetable butter, also known as hydrogenated oil, is a product of hydrogenation catalysis of ordinary vegetable oil under a certain temperature and pressure. It is processed from soybean and other vegetable oils and water, salt, milk powder, etc., because it can not only prolong the It can also make pastries crisper, have a high melting point and maintain a solid shape at room temperature, so it is widely used in food processing and baking.

The main ingredients of vegetable fresh cream are vegetable fat (about 20%) and animal or vegetable protein with high nutritional value, while animal fresh cream (natural cream) is milk fat extracted from fresh milk It is concentrated and the main component is animal fat (more than 80%). Animal whipped cream contains high cholesterol and high calories. The main component of vegetable butter is trans fatty acids, which will produce low-density fat after consumption, which will significantly increase the risk of heart disease, coronary heart disease, and atherosclerosis. On the contrary, animal fat is a natural fat, even if it contains trans fatty acids, it is natural, and the probability of causing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is lower than that of artificial vegetable butter.

Because trans fatty acids not only increase "bad" cholesterol, that is, low-density lipoprotein, but also reduce "good" cholesterol, that is, high-density lipoprotein. Saturated fatty acids only increase "bad" cholesterol. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration believes that trans fatty acids can increase people's risk of coronary heart disease. Therefore, they required that from January 1, 2006, food packaging must declare the content of trans fatty acids in the same way as the content of saturated fatty acids and cholesterol, unless the trans fatty acid content is less than 0.5 grams.

Safety

Natural cream is an extract, partially produced through fermentation, and has a short shelf life. Non-dairy cream is made from refined oils and has clear ingredients and a long shelf life, but it is more harmful to blood vessels. This is not the case, and now people are discovering the dangers. Vegetable butter is far more harmful than natural butter.

Hazardous

Scientists have discovered that hydrogenated oil cannot be broken down or metabolized by the body because it is "fake oil". In the end, it can only remain in the body and accumulate in cells or blood vessels. On the wall, it may cause harm such as kidney stones.

Hydrogenated oil has four main hazards to health

1. Increase blood viscosity and cohesion and promote thrombosis;

2. Increase low density Lipoprotein cholesterol (bad cholesterol), lowering high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (good cholesterol), and promoting arteriosclerosis;

3. Increase the incidence of type 2 diabetes;

4. Impact Normal growth and development of infants and adolescents and may have adverse effects on central nervous system development.
