NEW NIH COOKBOOK ENCOURAGES FAMILIES TO EAT HEALTHFULLY
.
.
Keep the Beat Recipes: Deliciously Healthy Family Meals
.
.
Nutritious meals can be tasty and easy to prepare, according to a new
family cookbook from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
(NHLBI), part of the National Institutes of Health.
.
Keep the Beat Recipes: Deliciously Healthy Family Meals has more than 40
kid-tested recipes featuring a variety of healthy entrees, side dishes,
and snacks that parents and children can enjoy together. The free cookbook
also offers time-saving tips and helpful resources for busy families.
.
"Good food choices made early in life can support a lifetime of healthy
habits. This cookbook can help parents make good decisions about the foods
they serve their families," said NHLBI Acting Director Susan B. Shurin,
M.D., a board-certified pediatrician. "With a healthy approach to cooking,
families learn to enjoy the taste of heart-healthy meals that can help
lower their risk of heart disease and other conditions."
.
The recipes in the cookbook were designed and created for the NHLBI by
David Kamen, a professor in Culinary Arts at the Culinary Institute of
America, trained chef/instructor, and father of two. All of the recipes
are based on heart-healthy principles from the NHLBI, include nutrition
analysis, reflect the principles of the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for
Americans, and provide guidance for preparing meals that are low in
saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, sodium, and added sugars. The
recipes also adhere to the NHLBI's Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension
(DASH) diet, which supports an overall healthy eating plan.
.
Keep the Beat Recipes: Deliciously Healthy Family Meals was developed in
collaboration with the NIH's We Can! (Ways to Enhance Children's Activity
and Nutrition) program. We Can! is a national education program supported
by four NIH institutes and led by the NHLBI. The program is designed to
provide parents, caregivers, and entire communities with strategies,
tactics, and tools to help children stay at a healthy weight by eating
healthfully, being active, and reducing screen time. The cookbook can be
used by the We Can! community sites as they implement programs for both
parents and youth.
.
The cookbook as well as individual recipes are available for free on the
Keep the Beat: Deliciously Healthy Eating website, and hard copies can be
ordered through the NHLBI Health Information Center. The site also
features a searchable database, family resources, healthy shopping and
cooking tips, videos, and information for the media. Visitors are also
invited to engage in an online community through the Keep the Beat
Facebook page, which contains information about upcoming events and
cookbook highlights. Log on at
