Nat5 Hospitality/Understanding and using ingredients/dietary targets Target:- Average intake of total fat to reduce to no more than 35% of food energy. Average intake of saturated fat to reduce to no more than 11% of food energy. Tips: • • • • use low fat spreads such as Flora margarine. try semi-skimmed milk instead of full fat milk. trim visible fat from meat before cooking. grill, bake or boil foods rather than frying in oil or lard Why? Benefit to health: • helps to control and maintain a healthy weight range (prevent obesity) as you are consuming less total fat which is high in calories/ Kjoules. • may decrease the risk factors for developing coronary heart disease as you are consuming less saturated fat if you eat less animal fat e.g. butter, cream and cheese.
