Denmark  Denmark became the first country to introduce laws strictly regulating the sale of many foods containing trans fats in March 2003, a move that effectively bans partially hydrogenated oils. The limit is 2\% of fats and oils destined for human consumption  . This restriction is on the ingredients rather than the final products. This regulatory approach has made Denmark the only country in which it is possible to eat "far less" than 1 g of industrially produced trans fats daily, even with a diet including prepared foods. It is hypothesized that the Danish government's efforts to decrease trans fat intake from 6 g to 1 g per day over 20 years is related to a 50\% decrease in deaths from ischemic heart disease. Before 1 January 2006, consumers in the United States could not directly determine the presence, or quantity, of trans fats in food products. This information could only be inferred from the ingredient list, notably from the partially hydrogenated ingredients.

Denmark In March 2003, Denmark became the first country to effectively ban artificial trans fat It limited the trans share to 2\% of fats and oils destined for human consumption , a standard that partially hydrogenated oil fails . This restriction is on the ingredients rather than the final products. This regulatory approach thus made Denmark the first country in which it was possible to eat "far less" than 1 g of industrially produced trans fats daily, even with a diet including processed foods. One public health study concluded that Danish government's efforts to decrease trans fat intake from 6 g to 1 g per day over 20 years is related to a 50\% decrease in deaths from ischemic heart disease. The first direct regulation of trans fat by the FDA was a requirement that it be labeled in amounts above 0.5g per serving, which took effect on January 1, 2006.
