In their breakthrough book, The New American Diet, the Connors
developed a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet that dramatically reduces
the risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and high blood pressure.
Now, the overwhelming amount of products and information about
cholesterol can be confusing.
The New American Diet System takes us to the next step,
providing a unique system that simplifies food choices for people
with high cholesterol. Since both saturated fat and cholesterol in
foods increase cholesterol in the blood, the Connors developed the
CSI -- the Cholesterol-Saturated Fat Index -- the only complete
measure of the true heart-healthiness of foods.
This indispensable reference:
-- makes food choices as simple as choosing from 1 to 10 (the lower
the CSI, the better)
-- provides easy-to-read charts rating hundreds of foods --
including many brand-name products
-- eliminates confusion about high-fat, low-cholesterol foods (such
as tropical oils) and low-fat, high-cholesterol foods (like
shellfish)
-- offers more than 300 recipes for tasty, low-CSI versions of your
favorite dishes as well as suggested menus
-- helps you compute your own CSI so you can set new dietary
goals.
A straightforward, comprehensive resource for anyone with high
cholesterol, or anyone concerned about dietary fat, The New
American Diet System is an essential part of every
cholesterol-conscious kitchen.
