Dairy Lobbies for Natural TFA

February 20, 2008: 12:00 AM EST
The European Dairy Association (EDA) says scientific research shows that naturally occurring trans fatty acids (TFA) in milk are not a health risk and do not need to be labeled on products. Draft EU laws call for labeling on products with natural and industrially manufactured TFA. Industrially produced TFA has been linked to a number of health problems. Dr. Joop Kleibeuker of the EDA told DairyReporter.com there was no evidence to suggest that natural TFA carried the same risks.
