Alanis developed recipes for individuals with common chronic illnesses that utilized foods available in Live HealthSmart Alabama’s (LHSA) Mobile Market. Registered Dieticians volunteered their time to ensure the recipes were appropriate for individuals experiencing hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and or type II diabetes. She followed up with shoppers to determine if they used the recipe and how the experience was for them. 

As a result of the project:

  • the Mobile Market now has recipes that can be used by individuals with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol that can be accessed by shoppers both at the Mobile Market and on the LHSA website.
