Recipes to Control Cholesterol and Blood Sugar

Q. Where can I find the recipes you write about in your newspaper articles? Specifically, I would like the persimmon tea formula for heartburn to help me get off omeprazole. I would also like to know more about which foods lower blood sugar and cholesterol.

A. Recipes that are especially good for lowering blood sugar and cholesterol include cinnamon-almond oatmeal, fenugreek seed tea, mustard and vinegar salad dressing, fish tacos with radish and lime, bitter melon stir fry and lentil nut loaf with red pepper sauce.

It contains these and dozens of other recipes to help you manage common conditions, including persimmon punch for heartburn.
