A group of medical and nutritional experts have produced another specialty cookbook, for that growing group aware of the necessity (in cases of hardening of the arteries) of a low fat, low cholesterol diet. For this group, this book supplies a real need of a palatable diet with adequate protein, vitamin and mineral content, which avoids those foods which are harmful. Sample menus, dietary specifications, recipes using substitutes provide the housekeeper with the stimulus to successful planning. Lists. Tables. Index. Instructions on how to measure. Definitions of what foods to avoid- what to include- and in what quantity.... These special problem diet cookbooks are important not only for the housewife, but for hospitals, institutions, restaurants catering to health seekers. Call to attention of local doctors.
