An ever-growing number of people worldwide are concerned with eating less fat and leading a more healthy lifestyle. This book puts fat consumption in context by answering basic questions as well as offering many nutritionally analyzed low fat recipes. A fat and cholesterol chart is included so that the reader can calculate fat intake, and the carefully compiled recipes concentrate on cutting back on butter and cream sauces, and using spices, vegetables and herbs to bring out flavour instead. The recipes cover every meal from breakfast to dinner, not forgetting snacks and bedtime treats. The reader is given advice on adapting their existing diet and terms such as saturated fat, polyunsaturated fat and monounsaturated fat are explained, together with their effect on cholesterol intake.
