I recently was put on a low sodium diet and I needed some help getting started. This cookbook has a lot of recipes that are just for the everyday person. There are so many tips too. I think this is a great source for someone who is looking for easy recipes as well as substitute recipes for things you make now but need to change to make them low sodium. I'm very happy with this book. When I first got it it made feel better about a low sodium diet. Better in the sense that it is something I can do and succeed at. In my opinion this is a great book to have in your kitchen. Even if you are not restricited... as you all know Americans eat way too much sodium and need to cut back.
Buy it - you'll love it!

I purchased this book after I was advised to maintain a low salt diet for reasons of cardio-vascular health. Not only have my wife and I fallen in love with many of the recipes, we have benefited from lower blood pressure, more energy and weight loss.

After some hesitation, I chose this book, figuring I had nothing to lose except a couple of bucks. I was amazed at how delicious the recipes were. The pasta dishes are great, the vegetable dishes have a great blending of flavors. Even my kids have enjoyed some of the dishes I have prepared. I am also surprised at the desserts. They are quite nice: brownies, oatmeal cookies, custards and crepes! Yum!
