The Cholesterol-Saturated Fat Index: "In order to make
it easier for people to select foods that are low in
BOTH cholesterol and saturated fats, we have devised a
Cholesterol-Saturated FAt Index(CSI). The CSI enables
you to grasp the contribution of both saturated fat
AND cholesterol in one food compared to another. The
CSI reflects our findings that the amount of saturated
fat in the diet is just as important as the amount of
cholesterol in terms of dietary control of the
cholesterol and LDL in the blood.
The lower the CSI number, the better the food
choice for the prevention of heart disease(and the
other disorders.....).
The New American Diet bySonja L. Connor,M.S.,R.D and
William E. Connor,M.D. I recomend very highly that you
purchase and read the Connor's book. Besides the
recipes which are included in this DB the book is
filled with the latest research on degenerative
diseases and diet.
