A client asks the nurse why there are different fats listed on the Nutrition Facts label. The nurse responds:
1. "You need to know the correct portion of each fat to consume each day.".
2. "Each fat has a different role.".
3. "It is important to eat some of each fat every day so you don't get deficiencies. This helps in diet planning.".
4. "It helps you plan a diet that included the healthiest fats.".

Rationale: The Nutrition Facts label included information about saturated, monounsaturated, and trans fats. It is important to plan a diet that limits intake of saturated and trans fats and one that includes monounsaturated fats. The label does not inform the consumer about the portion of fats that should be consumed daily. Each fat has a different role, but that information is not on the label. It is not necessary to consume some of each kind of fat on a daily basis; it is important to limit saturated and trans fats.
