”I have known Cheryl in her role as a dietitian and nutritionist in our cardiac rehabilitation program. Her extensive knowledge of nutrition science and guidelines has allowed her to incorporate the best evidence into the clinical information she passes on. Her advice is practical, understandable, and easy for most of us to incorporate into our daily dietary patterns. This book will be incredibly beneficial to anyone with coronary heart disease or cardiovascular disease, and, perhaps more importantly, it will also be a great help to those persons who are interested in preventing the occurrence of these types of life-threatening events.”―James A. Stone, MD, PhD, FRCPC, FAACVPR, FACC
