Choose This not That for High Triglycerides. This book represents the most comprehensive and actionable nutrition guidelines for how to reduce your risk, prevent and combat HT and its various symptoms.

Here are the highlights and what makes this publication unique and different from your other options:
A look-up table for over 800 different types of food and their suitability for HT
Health issues often come our way in groups of two or more. Those with HT are likely to suffer from multiple health issues and symptoms.

ACTIONABLE suggestions for what is good, what is bad, and what is neutral for your condition(s). We single out specific food items, and give you an ordered list of helpful and harmful foods within a food group.

Editorial Reviews
Review
“The Choose This … series of books provide dietary recommendations focused on common chronic health problems. They are easy to understand and thus easy to implement into daily life. Most doctors would find it difficult to discuss dietary recommendations at the level of detail found in the series.”Andrew S. Lenhardt, M.D. Lahey Clinic; Hamilton, MA
“Proper nutrition and other alternative treatments show great promise in preventing and treating many of the illnesses that we deal with every day. I encourage all my patients to follow appropriate nutrition and research other options for themselves. The Choose This Not That series are an excellent step towards improving people’s knowledge in this area.” Shahin Tabatabaei, MD Mass General Hospital; Harvard Medical School
“Proper nutrition and diet play such a critical role in our health and well-being. A great majority of health issues that I see in my patients could have been prevented through nutrition, exercise and better life style choices. Choose This Not That series of books and apps make it easy for everyone to improve their health by following nutrition suggestions that are specific to their personal situation.” Morad M. Tehrani, MD Internal Medicine and Anesthesiology; Marshall, MI
From the Author
Some clarifications about the Reviews:
@Kathy Edens. The book does provide guidance for bagel, cream cheese, English muffin and jelly, but addresses each separately as opposed to combination of bagel and cream cheese, or muffin & jelly. As you can imagine, the combinations are limitless.
The book does not suggest that fruits are not allowed, but instead it suggests that consumption of no fruit will LOWER your triglycerides. Ditto on vegetables.
Thanks to your comments, we made improvements to the language and explanations provided in the book.
@CruiseGal55. There was a data error re: Whole-Wheat Bread. We have made the correction, thanks to your comment.
