Learning Module 5 Discussion 

Is this meal or recipe heart healthy?

This discussion corresponds with the lipid chapter. Please read your text on lipids prior to completing the discussion question.

1. What is your favorite meal or recipe?

Please share your favorite meal—list the foods— or recipe—include the ingredients—for one serving; include the kcalories, grams of total fat, grams of saturated fat, and sodium it has per one serving. (3 points)

Below are resources for the nutrition information:

• Many chain restaurants have web sites with nutrition information;
•  http://www(dot)calorieking(dot)com/;
•  http://www(dot)nal(dot)usda(dot)gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/;
• https://www(dot)eatracker(dot)ca--use the Food Search or Recipe Analyzer;

• http://www(dot)sparkrecipes(dot)com/ -- Click ‘Add/ Calculate Recipe’ on top

If your favorite meal lists saturated fat as --, this is not 0 grams. Restaurants are not required to list saturated fat levels--yet. Check out the above resources to determine the saturated fat level if it is not listed through the restaurant’s website.

b.   How could you realistically modify the meal or recipe to make it more heart healthy?

-Include the kcalories, grams of total fat, grams of saturated fat, and sodium for your healthier           meal or recipe per one serving based upon recommended dietary modifications/ guidelines regarding fat levels as discussed in the Lipid chapter, in our Lipid assignment, plus the 2019 DRI Sodium guidelines for 14 years old and above of 1500 milligrams per day. (3 points)

-List the changes that you made and include the difference of  kcalories, grams of total fat, grams of saturated fat, and sodium for your healthier meal or recipe per one serving compared with your original meal or recipe. (2 points)

         -See the table below for inputting your information.

     c.  Respond to two of your fellow classmate’s discussions regarding their aligning of          their favorite meal or recipe to the heart healthy recommendations.

Did they make heart healthy changes? What would be your recommendations?
