Maybe you want to control your weight, combat high cholesterol, or fight
heart disease. Perhaps your doctor suggested a low fat diet, or perhaps
you just know you should eat better. Whatever your reason, this is the
cookbook to get you moving in the right direction. The good news is that
eating more healthfully isn't boring anymore; it means bringing taste,
fun, and variety to what you eat. And The American Heart Association
Low-Fat, Low-Cholesterol Cookbook, a treasure trove of nearly 200
recipes, is proof. From tempting appetizers like Crab Spring Rolls with
Peanut Dipping Sauce to amazing main courses like Peppery Beef with Blue
Cheese Sauce and luscious desserts like Sugar-Dusted Mocha Brownies, the
appealing recipes and sound science in this book make healthful eating
easy.
With the new American Heart Association dietary guidelines and all the
latest information on cholesterol, this book is an invaluable reference
for the health-conscious consumer. It tells in simple terms how
cholesterol affects the body, differentiates between "good" and "bad"
cholesterol, and discusses cholesterol-lowering drugs. Eating the
American Heart Association way is sensible, healthful, and delicious.
