Address: Total Health Foundation P.O. Box 5 Yakima, Washington 98907 (509) 865-2555 It not only has scads of recipes, but also contains a LOT of sensible information that is left OUT of MOST cookbooks. The recipes are all low sugar, low fat, and low cholesterol. You might write them and ask them for the price on the book and for a list of other good books. You might also mention that this is all quite new to you, etc. Eugene C. Zinter
