Learning which kinds of fats are beneficial and which are most harmful will help you make wise decisions and strike a healthy balance of enjoying some fat – but not too much!

Your friend loves his grandmother’s lasagna recipe. However, he is at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. His doctor advised him to avoid consuming saturated fats, sodium, and added sugars. Since you are a good friend, you will take your friend’s lasagna recipe and modify it to reduce the amount of fat, sugar, and salt (See Appendix 2 for recipe).Lasagna recipe.docxDownload Lasagna recipe.docx
