HEALTHY LIVING WITH HYPERTENSION: A GUIDE FOR AFRICAN AMERICANS - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

"Soul Food" is a term coined by African Americans to capture the uniqueness of the cooking style utilized for themselves, families and friends, all prepared with love, care and lots of soul. Many of these foods are rich in vitamins and minerals, but are also rich or high in total fat, saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium (salt).

"Cutting back on salt, as well as providing recipes that are lower in sodium, fat, and cholesterol", will help to promote "heart-healthy living".
