ABOUT THE BOOK

EDITORIAL REVIEW
Unsweetened cocoa is a blockbuster drug, THE most powerful antioxidant, and *required* in this stunning new diet designed by noted cardiologist Dr. Robert Schneider and his wife Joyce, an inventive Heart Smart cook. With 29 times more antioxidants than broccoli, unsweetened cocoa can: hyper-boost your antioxidant levels; slow the aging process; lower your blood pressure; help prevent cancer, strokes, heart attacks, diabetes, and complications of diabetes...AND produce that endorphinny good feeling (relaxing artery walls, increasing a sense of optimism like a mood altering drug) that helps you stick to a diet, lose the weight which overwhelmingly causes those diseases. But how to put cocoa and Healthy New Food products together? Cook, bake, and prepare ALL food in a whole new way? This diet will show you how. Give you inventive "hybrid recipes" that are fun as well as healthy. (Luscious Pumpkin Pie with No sugar, No fat, No Cholesterol; brownies -- the same! -- with more nutrients than most meals.) You will learn new ways to prepare food that will get you thin and healthy permanently, with greater ease and delight than you ever dreamed possible. And surprise: even with this diet’s delicious meals -- shrimp scampi, chicken stroganoff, Tex Mex, no-yolks quiche & gorgeous pasta, for example -- you may start seeing the meal as the cover act and dessert as the headliner!
USER REVIEWS
"This diet/cookbook is terrific. I've lost 10 pounds without cravings! That may not sound like a lot, but believe me, it is. The health/nutrition updates in the first 50 pages have helped me realize what I'd been doing wrong. Can't think of any other diet book that gave such great advice, and in such a warm, helpful way. This book's a real ego booster when I'm feeling down or stressed about my weight.

And, since I love chocolate, the book's recommended unsweetened cocoa recipes (no-sugar no-fat fudge sauce!) have helped me fight off hunger. Cocoa is also the highest in antioxidants, something else I hadn't known, so I consider it and the recent studies revealed in this book as a lifesaver. The recipes are also amazingly inventive, using new, better-for-you food products.

I've done about a zillion diets, but I've only gained weight and nearly went nuts from the cravings. No more of that with The Cardiologist's Wife's book. I can't recommend it enough."

"Was disappointed that there were not many chocolate desert recipees. I have a hard time dieting because of my chocolate addition and thought I had found the cookbook for me. It's a good cookbook just not enough (hardly any) chocolate."

"My doctor recommened this, and said a lot of doctors are recommending it. This book is fantastic, and a shock. Who knew that "fat free evaporated milk" has as much sugar as a candy bar!? I still see "diet" recipes that say "substitute sugar with honey, chopped dates, ripened bananas" -- "ripened" just means the starch breaking down into sugar, and "natural sugar" is still sugar! The authors also help us to understand what's bogus, or just plain wrong even among well-intentioned "diet" recipes. When I got through the book's first chapter I thought WOW that's why no diet has worked for me, or was so hard, or I lost the weight & then gained it back. I'm also thrilled at the thought of fudge sauce on sliced fruit & walnuts every night. I feel so good!

THIS is a diet!? But it works, it's funny and has the most up to date health/nutrition information. Also, since it's both low carb AND low fat, it will be easy to make into a life program."

"If you really want to lose weight and improve your health, this is the best diet for the new century. No wonder none of the old diets worked! I can't believe how much I've lost in the month since I started. Ten pounds without cravings! That's because of the cocoa, which helps you go longer without feeling hungry. It's also because of this diet's "makeover" approach to all recipes for all meals. It uses much healthier sugar-free, fat-free, new food products in many of its delicious recipes to create bigger, more filling portions that are still low cal.

It's also the first low carb and low fat diet I've ever heard of. Also valuable is the new health and nutrition information in Parts One & Three of the book. In the past, I've failed at so many diets, not realizing that their claims to "no sugar" & low fat were bogus. This book has a whole section on "hidden sugars in your diet recipes," and I was shocked. That's why I wasn't losing weight!

If you really seriously want to get thin, stay thin, and improve your health, this book is the best. "

"I think the book was poorly written. I think an editor would have been nice - LOTS of typos in the recipes. We tried several of the dessert recipes (cheesecake and apple crisp) and threw them away. They were awful!!! Although the ideas in the book are good, the recipes are not and too much Splenda is used. Some of the recipes could do without the Splenda and still taste good."
