I hated the recipes. For doctors who want people to eat healthy, how dare the authors put recipes that include high amounts of sodium. I appreciated the breakdowns but, seriously, 1,500+ mg of sodium? Really? There are a lot of recipes that have high sodium levels. As someone who has a Mediterranean background, I've eaten salads with no dressings. Feta cheese? Make sure you get it fresh from a farmer's market and NOT from the supermarket due to its high-sodium levels. If you want to become a vegetarian, you do it in steps. You don't become a vegetarian overnight. If you do, then you'll have serious problems. How about gradually reducing your sodium levels? Now there's a chapter to include in your book!
