September 28: Keep Your Heart Healthy with Low Cholesterol Meals on Cholesterol Education Month!

Here at Dishfolio we love good food, but we cherish good health just as much. The great thing is that it's possible to score low cholesterol without comprising on taste and variety in your diet. Indeed, our food bloggers have countless ideas for low cholesterol recipes for dinner that will get your tastebuds tingling!

The word 'cholesterol' might be Ancient Greek in origin, but the knowledge that too much of it is bad for us is not so mature. It's only recently that we've come to associate high cholesterol with heart problems and strokes, while foodstuffs such as nuts, fish and oats have been identified as potential remedies, and now feature in many family dinner recipes for the cholesterol-conscious.

Did you know that the American Heart Association suggests that we eat fish twice a week to get our dose of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids? These are found in all manner of flavor-filled fish - from the smoky mackerel to the subtle salmon. Our food bloggers can show you how to get the most out of them.
