The two best ways to lower blood pressure without medication are lowering sodium in your diet and controlling your weight. The American Heart Association cookbooks always help you reduce the fat in your diet--now this one helps you reduce the sodium, too. Don't think that reducing sodium means your food will be boring and tasteless. The American Heart Association Low-Salt Cookbook shows you how to use herbs, spices, and in some cases, spirits to keep your dishes flavorful. Learn how to make ingredient substitutions so that you can adapt your favorite recipes--"seasoning blends" like Herb Seasoning, Lemon Herb Seasoning, Salad Herb Blend, or Chili Powder Blend instead of salt, for example. The 175 recipes include modifications of familiar favorites, such as Tuna Macaroni Casserole, Arroz con Pollo, Beef Stroganoff, and Meat Loaf. There are also intriguing new recipes, such as Fish Steaks with Thyme, and Chicken with Yogurt-Cilantro Sauce. There are also sauces, soups, snacks, and salads. Thirty dessert recipes give you healthier versions of all your old favorites, including Peanut Butter Cookies, Fudge, Cherry Pie, Vanilla Pudding, and, of course, Chocolate Cake. All recipes include nutritional information: calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat (total, saturated, polyunsaturated, monounsaturated), cholesterol, sodium, potassium, and calcium. --Joan Price Product Description: America's most trusted authority on heart-healthy eating presents its classic low-salt cookbook, revised and expanded with 50 brand-new recipes. Millions of health-conscious Americans want to reduce their sodium intake, and the American Heart Association offers a delicious way to do just that. Encompassing everything from appetizers and soups to entrées and desserts, the American Heart Association Low-Salt Cookbook, Second Edition, is a wonderful collection of more than 200 scrumptious low-salt — and, of course, low-fat — recipes. Whether you're in the mood for a revised classic or an up-to-the-minute future favorite, you'll find just the thing to please your palate. The latest dietary information and tips on substituting ingredients, avoiding hidden sodium, and dining out will help you stick to your low-sodium way of eating — and enjoy it. If you're one of the 50 million Americans with high blood pressure or one of nearly 5 million who suffer from congestive heart failure, reducing the sodium in your diet and controlling your body weight are two of the best things you can do to help manage these conditions. A must-have for sodium-watchers, this book shows you how to accomplish your goals without sacrificing style or flavor. From the Hardcover edition. Average Rating:
