Recipes for the Heart

Recipes for the Heart is a nutrition and health guide for people with high blood pressure. High blood pressure, its causes, consequences and control, are explained in an easy-to-understand way. Additional chapters focus on various nutrients (such as sodium and potassium), weight control and exercise. Quick-to-fix, classic recipes help people with high blood pressure discover how easy it is to control sodium, and increase other important nutrients, in homemade foods. Recipes compare nutrients (such as sodium and potassium) to packaged, commercial foods to emphasize the importance of reading labels.
