Heart Smart - Sugar Wise

Mary Stangl became interested in reducing the fat and cholesterol in the diets of she and her husband when a brother-in-law suffered a serious heart attack due to plaque build-up in an artery. After extensive research, she began converting favorite recipes to food fare that would meet fat and cholesterol guidelines. In 1987 she began writing a newspaper food column called, "Healthy, Tasty and Wise," on a weekly basis. When she began her crusade against fat and cholesterol she weighed 252 pounds. Today she weighs 158 pounds. She believes people are on the threshhold of a new beginning in the kitchen and hopes her cookbooks will help pioneer the way to an easier conversion to healthier cooking. Her first book, "Hold The Fat" controlled fat and cholesterol. "Heart Smart-Sugar Wise" controls fat and cholesterol, but also includes the diabetics needs.
