Introduction
Fats, or lipids, are a key component of any healthy diet, but it’s important to know if we’re getting too little healthful fat, too much harmful fat, or too much fat in general. In this exercise, you will evaluate your fat intake, break down the various types of fats you consume on an average day, and compare them with the current dietary recommendations.
In this activity, you will identify the sources of lipids in your diet and compare the amount you get with the current dietary recommendations.
This activity can be completed using the AnalyzeMyDiet tool linked from your LaunchPad course or any dietary analysis software that provides the daily average amount of vitamins consumed.
To complete the activity using AnalyzeMyDiet:
- If you have not already completed the AnalyzeMyDiet Tutorial and tracked at least one day’s nutrition and activity, do so first.
- Within AnalyzeMyDiet, go to the Reports tab.
- Select “Bar Graph” on the left
- Select the day(s) that are a good representative of your typical diet.
- Click “Show Report” to download your Nutrition Report.
- Within the report, you will see the value (average consumption per day), goal (daily target), and Percent (completion of target consumption) for each nutrient.
