Thiamin|(Vitamin B1) -This vitamin helps metabolize food (how the body obtains energy from food), keeps nerves healthy and promotes good appetite and digestion.  Food sources include:  lean meat, pork, poultry, fish, soybeans, dried beans and peas, nuts, enriched and whole grain breads and cereals.|Thiamin.swf\Trans Fatty Acids| Trans fats are created through a hydrogenation process (adding hydrogen molecules) which changes liquids into solids (for example, vegetable oil becomes stick margarine). The process increases the shelf life and improves the texture of the food.  The more hydrogenated an oil is, the harder it will be at room temperature.  For example, a spreadable tub margarine is less hydrogenated and has fewer trans fats than a stick of margarine.  Trans fats are found in  breads, crackers, donuts, margarine,  fried foods, and many other snack foods. Some trans fats do occur naturally in beef and butter.  Trans fats are a concern because they not only raise the bad LDLs, similar to saturated fats, but they also lower the good HDLs.  High <u><a href="asfunction:_level0.LinkToWord,Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL)">LDLs</a></u> and low <u><a href="asfunction:_level0.LinkToWord,High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL)">HDLs</a></u> are associated with cardiovascular disease. Read food labels to decrease saturated fat and trans fat from your diet.|TransFattyAcids.swf\
