Publishers Text

This book looks at Down Home Cooking and how to make it healthy. African Americans suffer from higher rates of serious diseases like high blood pressure, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease and some types of cancer. African Americans also suffer more serious health problems and die at earlier ages from these diseases. The good news however is that eating a healthy diet and leading an active lifestyle promote good health and therefore lowers the chances for getting these illnesses. This cookbook includes recipes that constitute a healthier diet, including fruits and vegetables, whole grains, fat-free or low-fat milk products, lean meats, fish, beans, eggs and nuts. The recipes and hints in this cookbook will help people get started eating in a healthier way.
