A great book that is easily written to explain how diet affects your body's lipids and lipid chemistry. There are nice explanations on how to review nutrition information on foods so that you can start making smart choices when grocery shopping. There are also numerous healthy recipes that I have enjoyed making as well as being served. This is a great book for those wanting to live a heart healthy lifestyle.
