My husband came home from his physical and said his doctor wanted him to start the DASH diet to address high blood pressure. But where to start? This book was an excellent answer to that question. Practical steps combined with good recipes got us off to the right start. This book gave me the confidence that I could feed my family good-tasting food that would fit with my husband's medical needs. no reviews | add a review
