<p>No estimate has been made. The most recent data from the United Kingdom National
Diet and Nutrition Survey, collected between 2016 and 2019, show that average trans
fat intakes in the UK are 0.5-0.6% of total energy intake for adults, and 0.5% for
children. This is well within the UK recommended maximum of no more than 2% of total
energy.</p><p> </p><p>Trans fat intakes in the UK have declined substantially since
the 1980s and 1990s due to the voluntary removal of artificial trans fats from processed
foods by the food industry, with some additional work to reduce levels of trans fats
in food being undertaken between 2011 and 2013.</p>
