Customer Reviews

Very good cookbook and info

We really like the Cleveland Clinic's Healthy Heart Lifestyle Guide and Cookbook. I got it for our whole family to use because my husband has recently been diagnosed with high cholesterol at the age of 31, a shock to all of us with him being at such a young age. I remembered recently reading about this cookbook in the Cleveland Clinic's heart surgery ICU after my father's open heart surgery in early August. The recipes are very good and are not too complicated to make. We have enjoyed the recipes and have been surprised at the wide variety of food we can all have in a healthy heart diet. Everyone can benefit from lowering their cholesterol so our whole family including our young children are keeping to this type of diet (a refreshing change from typical kid fare such as mac and cheese and chicken fingers). The biggest thing that I remember about my father's 6 week stay at the Cleveland Clinic, was how much he enjoyed their food. This cookbook was an easy choice for us because of what my father had to say about the food there. Sadly he passed away 3 weeks after coming home, we are also using this cookbook as a tribute to him.
