Description

The latest research on heart disease and food, nutritional and dietary recommendations, cooking and shopping tips and over 100 great recipes. Colour photos throughout. 160 pagesBy Paul Gayler and Jacqui Lynas (2004)

A book of recipes devised by a leading chef and based on nutritional advice from a dietitian - What could be more useful or necessary? This book contains over 100 recipes that have been designed to tempt your taste buds and keep your heart healthy.

Heart disease is the largest single cause of premature death in the Western World, yet can often be prevented by good eating habits: reducing the amount of saturated fat and salt and increasing plant foods in the diet. In Healthy Eating for Your Heart, chef Paul Gayler and dietitian Jacqui Lynas have used their considerable culinary skills to prove that healthy eating need not mean boring food.

The first part of the book explain what causes heart disease and how to reduce the risks. It discusses how to implement good eating habits with the least disruption, for example, how to feed a family, healthy fast food, eating out. There is also advice on what foods to eat and what foods to avoid, the difference between good and bad fats and cholesterol and why the Mediterranean and Asian diets can help to protect against heart disease. Could chocolate and wine in moderation actually be good for your heart? Healthy Eating for Your Heart contains the latest food recommendations and the best ways to incorporate them into your daily diet.

The recipes are divided into meals types - breakfasts and brunches, soups and salads, light meals and appetisers, main courses, dessets - so you can create tasty menus for quick lunches, healthy snacks and family dinners. With 100 recipes created specially by a chef and a dietitian for a healthy heart, this book will impress your family, friends and doctors.
