Almost all recipes in standard cookbooks may be adapted to salt restricted diets by making these very simple changes:
CHOLESTEROL LOWERING EATING PLAN The general guidelines for lowering cholesterol levels are to limit fat intake and to make sure that the small amount of fat incorporated in the diet is polyunsaturated. Avoid saturated fats like butter and cream. You should also avoid those foods containing large amounts of cholesterol (such as organ meats like liver, brains and prawns) and limit eggs to three times per week. It is very important to maintain normal weight. If overweight, a reduction in weight can help lower your blood cholesterol significantly. Recipes containing eggs can be used as a part of the egg allowance per week or polyunsaturated egg mix may be substituted in all recipes.
