Healthful recipes with a tasty twist from the doctor who “cares a great deal about all of us winning the low-fat game” (Booklist).
Dr. Gabe Mirkin has helped thousands of Americans lose weight and lower their cholesterol through his medical practice as well as his nationally syndicated radio talk shows and fitness newsletter. In this book, he reminds us that no special food or supplement can turn a bad diet into a good diet. Instead, he shows us how to keep our fat intake under 20 grams a day, and boost our fiber, to help prevent heart disease and other serious conditions.
He and coauthor Diana Rich present 275 deliciously simple, mostly-vegan recipes that draw on a variety of ethnic cuisines, plus a medically tested health-and-fitness plan—for anyone who wants to lose weight and feel better.
