Now, the nation's most trusted authority on heart-healthy living presents a cookbook bursting with nourishing, flavorful recipes to please the palates of family members of "all" ages.

- Busy Nights
- Plan-Aheads
- Cook Once, Eat Twice
To help you incorporate additional vegetables, fruits, and grains into your family's diet, we've included Make It a Meal, a special feature that suggests accompaniments-salads and soups, vegetable and grain side dishes, and even desserts-for many of the main dishes.

By now, you've heard of (and maybe tried) them all: the low-carb diet, the grapefruit diet, the miracle diet . . . the list goes on and on. Fad diets may promise a quick fix, but few deliver lasting results. If you're like millions of other Americans, you're still struggling to lose weight and get in shape--without harming your long-term health in the process.
It's time to leave behind the one-size-fits-all approach to dieting. Now, the American Heart Association, the nation's most trusted authority on heart-healthy living, introduces its first-ever comprehensive weight-loss book. "No-Fad Diet" helps you create a personalized plan to lose weight in a healthful way. After a simple assessment of your current habits, you choose the eating and exercise strategies that best fit your needs.

This all-new health guide from the American Heart Association, the most trusted source on cardiovascular health, makes living a low- sodium lifestyle more achievable than ever before. Given the association's recommendation that Americans should reduce their daily sodium intake by half to 1,500 milligrams, going low- sodium can seem daunting at best, but this user-friendly book makes it both possible and practical. With up-to-date health information, real-life strategies, and 60 low-sodium recipes for popular high- sodium foods, American Heart Association Eat Less Salt provides a complete toolkit for adopting a low-sodium lifestyle one step at a time.

Current statistics say that nine out of ten Americans will develop high blood pressure at some time in their lives. The higher the sodium intake, the greater the risk for high blood pressure and its potentially deadly effects, including heart attack and stroke. To address that risk, here is guidance on how to cut back on sodium and make the lifestyle adjustments that can prevent or reduce high blood pressure. In American Heart Association Eat Less Salt, you will find realistic strategies and approaches for achieving your low-sodium goals. Features include: -An action plan for small incremental changes -Easy-to-understand charts for targeting high-sodium foods both at home and when eating out -Tips for staying focused on eating well -Information on deciphering food labels -60 recipes for low-sodium favorites. American Heart Association Eat Less Salt shows you how to gradually reduce your dietary sodium without feeling deprived.

Whether you have heart-health problems now or want to avoid having them in the future, keeping your sodium intake low is one of the best ways to help your heart. In this revised and expanded fourth edition of the "American Heart Association Low-Salt Cookbook, " the association shows that a low-sodium diet can be not only good for your health but also full of flavor.
Including everything from appetizers and soups to entrees and desserts, "American Heart Association Low-Salt Cookbook, 4th Edition, " offers more than 200 delicious low-sodium recipes--more than 50 of them brand-new to this edition. Whether you are in the mood for a beloved classic or a new favorite, you will find just the dish to please your palate.
Looking for a less salty snack? Try Baked Veggie Chips served with Hot and Smoky Chipotle-Garlic Dip. Craving something hearty and full of flavor? Slow-Cooker Moroccan Chicken with Orange Couscous is an ideal low-sodium fix-it-and-forget-it meal. For a Sunday-night family dinner, try Three-Cheese Lasagna with Swiss Chard.
