According to the FDA, mono- and diglycerides are generally recognized as safe. They can be used in food without limitation, provided the manufacturing process is satisfactory. The Center for Science in the Public Interest also describes them as safe, while a WHO report indicates that there are no harmful effects associated with their consumption. That doesn’t necessarily mean they’re good for you. Currently, there’s no way of knowing how much trans fat is in products with mono- and diglycerides listed on the label. Food products with mono- and diglycerides are also likely to be high in other fats, as well as refined sugar and flour.
