1915年至1980年代：成立和早期

美国心脏协会起源于为数不多的一些人群。

美国心脏病协会的规模一直都很小，直到1940年代，宝洁公司选择与它“合作”。宝洁公司在广播节目《真相或后果》给它捐赠了150万美元的巨款后，该组织得以走向全国。宝洁从废弃的棉籽中提取出棉籽油，并让其成为所谓“对心脏有益”的产品来替代饱和动物脂肪。

宝洁公司（Procter＆Gamble）是名为Crisco（结晶棉籽油）的人造反式脂肪黄油的发明者。该产品，人造黄油被美国心脏病协会（AHA）吹捧为比黄油更健康。

现在我们知道，部分氢化的植物油中的反式脂肪对人体健康有害。

（不仅如此，这些种子油是慢性疾病的罪魁祸首）。

1915–1980s: Founding and early years

The American Heart Association grew out of a set of smaller precursor groups. 

The AHA remained small until the 1940s when it was selected for support by Procter & Gamble, via their PR firm, from a list of applicant charities. Procter & Gamble gave $1.5 million from its radio show, Truth or Consequences, allowing the organization to go national.[8] Procter & Gamble turned cottonseeds from a waste product of cotton production into something that could be sold as a supposedly "heart-healthy" alternative to its competition - animal fats, which were mostly saturated. 

Procter & Gamble were the inventors of the artificial trans-fat margarine called Crisco (Crystallized Cottonseed Oil), which was touted by the AHA as healthier than butter. 

We now know that the artificial trans-fat from partially hydrogenated vegetable oils are detrimental to human health.
