Dioxins in Palm fatty acid destilate (PFAD)
What is this? A food ingredient called palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) may have small amounts of dioxins. Dioxins are unwanted chemicals that can build up in the body over time.
What's happening? Spain stopped some shipments of PFAD from Malaysia because it might contain dioxins. The risk is low, but they want to be safe.
Does this affect me? If you eat food made with PFAD, like some animal feed or processed foods, you might be affected. Most people are not at high risk.
What should I do? If you are worried, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice. Do not throw away food unless told to do so.
