Johannesburg - A new edition of Pharma Dynamics’ recipe book, Cooking from the Heart, produced in partnership with the Heart and Stroke Foundation SA, is available free from some GPs and pharmacies.
Alternatively, you can download an e-book from cookingfromtheheart.co.za or heartrecipes.mobi.
Pharma Dynamics spokeswoman Mariska van Aswegen says the new book comprises more than 30 flavourful, no-fuss, heart-smart breakfast, lunch and snack recipe options to suit everyone’s pocket.
The first edition included supper, side dish, baking and dessert recipes.
Dr Vash Mungal-Singh, chief executive of the Heart and Stroke Foundation, said the book was created to make eating right less of a chore.
“Many South Africans are eating too much, and highly processed foods are among the culprits. These foods are usually energy-dense, high in fats, sugar and salt.”
Some 6.3 million South African have hypertension, a precursor of heart disease.
