Partially hydrogenated oils (ICS Codes: 67.200)
Notice of Proposal: Prohibiting the Use of Partially Hydrogenated Oils (PHOs) in Foods

The purpose of this notice is to inform consumers and interested stakeholders of Health Canada’s intent to implement a prohibition on the use of partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs) in foods by adding PHOs to Part 1 of the List of Contaminants and Other Adulterating Substances in Foods (the List) .

By adding PHOs to Part 1 of the List, any food containing PHOs would be declared adulterated and its sale in Canada prohibited in accordance with section 4 of the Food and Drugs Act.
