Book Reviews of Harriet Roth's Cholesterol Control Cookbook
Book Review: Good resource for cholesterol info, diet plans & recipes
Summary: 4 Stars
After looking at several different books aimed at helping people reduce their cholesterol, this is my favorite thus far. It has an introductory section on cholesterol and how it affects you -- enough info if you are uninformed but not over the top with the science of it. Then Roth has a "jump start" diet plan that I like very much so far -- breakfasts are pretty much set, but the lunches and dinners are flexible to adjust for the types of veggies and fruits you personally like, as do the snacks. It is easy to follow and reasonable in what it is asking you to do/change for the two weeks Roth recommends that you are on it. This in particular made the book stand out from other books of this type. Then Roth features a "maintenance" diet that is meant to be a long-term lifestyle change for a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet. It too is reasonable. Both sections are accompanied by recipes. (At this point, I have only tried the muffin recipe, which is great).
And let me say now that the thought of all of the oat bran and oat meal may seem overwhelming, but the portion sizes might surprise you, and will, most likely, fill you up. The muffins Roth recommends are excellent (although I added a little more applesauce because they were a little dry for me). I also found that the muffin recipe bakes up fine when I put it in two muffin loaf pans - I just cut each loaf so that I have the 12 portions the recipe makes. (Also makes them easier to freeze, as they are flat pieces).
In summary, I have read multiple books on lowering cholesterol and low-cholesterol diets, and this is my favorite thus far. I actually got it from my library, but like it so much that I am purchasing. Contains good diet plans, recipes, and solid advice. A keeper!
