Studies on the Comparative Nutritive Value of Fats

IX. The Digestibility of Margarine Fat in Human Subjects1

Harry J. Deuel, Jr.

Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition, University of Southern California School of Medicine, Los Angeles

Margarine fat composed of hydrogenated domestic vegetable oils was found to be digested to an average of 97% by normal men and women which was an identical value obtained in three tests on butter fat. There was no evidence of any unpleasant physiological effects when a maximum of 111 gm of margarine fat was ingested daily.
