Summary: confusing cholesterol
Comment: Having to recently begin watching my cholesterol I purchased this book as I thought it would be the easiest and quickest book to help me understand eating and cookiing. However, I found it more confusing than anything else and very similar to any other book as far as technical information, though, it tried to be "cute" a lot. I would have been interested in sample menus and clearly posted lists showing foods to avoid etc. The chapters on 10 foods to avoid and 10 foods to include were interesting but not enough and too much information and disclaimers throughout the book.

Summary: attacking cholesterol
Comment: This is a great reference book for those of us fighting the dreaded cholesterol monster. I can say no more than that it is worth the money and a must have.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Boring read, good information
Comment: The title says it all. I tried to read from cover to cover but it's just boring. So I jumped around, which be design works great that way, got the information I needed, and moved on with my life.

Summary: Buy it...
Comment: This is a fantastic book for learning all about the cholestrol which is the reason why I bought it. However, after I read it, I was pleasantly surprised to find this book to be better than most popular "diet" books out there. It's straight forward (with humor!), contains lots of informative facts, many handy references (web sites, phone numbers, statistics etc.,), considerate of the reader and not out to please any interest groups (i.e., honest). What more can you ask for! This book is well worth your money.
