A Tasty Way to Lower Cholesterol

By WLR Dietitian, Juliette Kellow BSc RD

Chocolate Torte, Chunky Chips, Classic Burgers and Egg Fried Rice – they’re not the types of dishes most of us would think of eating for a healthy heart. But these are just a few of the offerings in Healthy Eating for Lower Cholesterol (Kyle Cathie Ltd, £12.99).

Written by Chef Daniel Green and dietician Catherine Collins – and published in association with H.E.A.R.T UK, the Cholesterol Charity, this book is packed with simple, yet comprehensive information about how to lower cholesterol.

It explains the link between high cholesterol and heart disease, different types of cholesterol, what your cholesterol levels should be and how smoking and being overweight, amongst many other conditions, affect cholesterol levels.

You’ll also find out detailed information about foods to eat to lower cholesterol and foods to avoid which are high in cholesterol. There are more than 100 heart healthy, delicious recipes to choose from, which are all calories and fat counted.
