The Low Cholesterol Cookbook and Action Plan 4 Weeks to Cut Cholesterol and Improve Heart Health Karen L Swanson Jennifer Koslo Phd RD 9781939754646 Books Reviews
- My husband found out that his cholesterol is VERY high a couple of weeks ago. I ordered this book along with a few others to try to change my southern way of cooking. Out of all the books, this one has the best and easiest to prepare recipes and my husband has enjoyed every meal. He says it’s easy eating healthy. Hmmm.
- My wife would have given it 5 stars but she is a cookbook picture type. So if pictures are a necessity in a cook book, you may want to rethink this one. On a positive note, she hasn't come across a recipe she wouldn't try and I haven't eaten one I didn't like.
- Loved this book. Just finished reading through it and it is so well-written and easy to read. The author’s story in the ‘Introduction’ about finding out she has high cholesterol and deciding to lower it with diet and exercise and launching a blog was interesting. The section about dietary fiber was useful since I already take fiber daily to lower my cholesterol, and this gives me additional options. I learned a lot about cholesterol reading this book, and am looking forward to trying the recipes.
- I absolutely love this cookbook. It has been very useful. I initially followed the weekly meal planning and now I am trying out the recipes and creating my own meal plans. All the recipes in this book are very easy to prepare and all the ingredients for me have been easy to find. I write notes in the margin of each recipe I have tried referencing the tastiness of the recipe. I would have to say almost every single one has been a fine dining delight. There are a few recipes that I did not like but I know that is typical of all cookbooks. My favorite recipes so far have been the Chicken and Zucchini Burgers, Baked Sweet Potatoes Fries, Slower cooker Hawaiian Chicken, Steamed Rosemary Trout in Parchment with spinach, Spiced Baked apples, Blueberry Blender Nice Cream, Butternut Mac and Cheese, Creamy Oat bran with Apricots to name a few. I could go on and on though. Recipes are well laid out and very easy to follow. All easily made within 30 minutes. The author has given excellent information to eat healthy and living a lower cholesterol and heart healthy diet and lifestyle change. Its easy and very satisfying. I have shared my food with friend and they love it. My 15 year old picky daughter likes the food. Yay, now that is something to be said. Can't say enough on how much I like this cookbook. I also have shared this info with friends and family.
- As someone with Type I Diabetes, it is vital to keep my cholesterol low and my heart healthy. I just came across this cookbook. I think it just came out? I tried one of the chicken recipes last night and even my picky husband liked it.I will definitely be turning to it again...maybe tonight!
- This book has been very helpful with figuring out my cholesterol issues. Less boring than the one put out by the AHA. Recipes are easy to follow though I often have to add more herbs or spices to bump up the flavor. A lot of the recipes are for slow cookers which I do not have, but you can adapt them.
- I love how the author explains in detailed but easy-to-understand terms what cholesterol is, why it’s a problem, and how you can lower it naturally with food and exercise. The ‘Foods that Lower Cholesterol’ section was interesting, and my whole family (some vegetarian) liked the Gemelli Salad with Green Beans and Pistachios - it was delicious and easy to make!
- This cookbook does so much more than present recipes (although they are great). It clearly explains the health issues behind cholesterol and how I can get healthier by changing the way I eat. Well-written and beautifully laid out - this one is a keeper!
