Reviews

"Diet, along with exercise and medication, is a critical component to maintaining cardiovascular health or recovering from a cardiovascular event. At times, the science of nutritional health can be overwhelming to patients and their families, and even the best intentioned can struggle to eat correctly. In The 30-Minute Low-Cholesterol Cookbook, Karen Swanson distills the science of cardiovascular nutrition into an easy to understand summary--which is paired with healthy, nutritious recipes that anyone can prepare so they can reduce their risk of heart disease."--Jared G. Selter, MD, FACC, fellow of the American College of Cardiology

"For anyone who wants to lower their cholesterol, I highly recommend The 30-Minute Low-Cholesterol Cookbook. Karen Swanson's explanation of the cholesterol-diet connection is comprehensive and easy-to-understand. And the low-cholesterol eating principles in this book are in line with advice I give patients every day."?Jill Denowitz, MD, diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine

"I'm always looking for fast, tasty recipes for my family that might give us an option beyond red meat. I came across this book and have found that the focus on lean meats, fish, and chicken as proteins, balanced with lots of vegetables (which I love), give me options for the balanced dinners I'm always trying to figure out--in the very limited time I have to prepare them!"--Kathleen F.
