The Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) of the National Cholesterol Education Program issued an evidence-based set of guidelines on cholesterol management in 2001 (Executive Summary published in JAMA, 2001;285:2486-2497). Since the publication of ATP III, 5 major clinical trials of statin therapy with clinical end points have been published. These trials addressed issues that were not examined in previous clinical trials of cholesterol-lowering therapy. The present document reviews the results of these recent trials and assesses their implications for cholesterol management.

Clinical Alert: Transfusions Should Continue in Children with SCD who are at Risk of Strokes

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) announced today an advisory recommending that blood transfusions should be continued in order to reduce the rate of strokes (cerebral infarctions or hemorrhages) in children with sickle cell anemia who are at risk of strokes. Strokes occur in approximately 10% of children with sickle cell anemia. These cerebral vascular events can be very debilitating, leading to physical and neuro-psychological impairment which can affect motor skills, school performance, and overall quality of life.

I am a woman age 51. I have always eaten whole grain, no red meat, generally low fat, high fiber diet. My latest blood test came back with very high LDL, and I was shocked (at least my HDL levels were high also). It seems that stress can give you high cholesterol, no matter what you eat. Your own body will make it. So get checked.

The cholesterol information is useful and straight forward. The main solution for high cholesterol seems to be the TLC diet. While those three letters appear many times, nothing tells the reader where to go to find a detailed description of this diet.

This a very dangerous thing. I think everybody needs to look at their nutrition facts on their food. I haven’t been around for like 40 years or more but I do know that food didn’t use to have all those bad things that are very harmful to your body. So watch out and take care of your body. Stay healthy

I`m using hormones since 1994 and I`m now 63. I can`t think about something more helpful for me than hormones. I hope that this new trend of trying to persuade women to stop taking the hormones by terrifing them with this new research is not a sign of stoping all the research of what is good for women even if it is not perfect yet. It is neccesary to improve women’s life if we want the family as a unit to roll on. Don`t frighten, go on searching and try improving our life.

A GOOD COMPREHENSIVE KIT FOR WOMEN Although a very good information guideline for the mid-aged woman, the drug therapy for osteoporosis and the various calcium supplements available in regard to their bioavailability profile need to be looked at more deeply.

Very impressed by this superbly prepared guide that one could save on one’s computer desktop or smartphone for quick reference. Have already highlighted relevant portions on my copy. The "Instead of...Replace with" is a great idea and so is the Sample Reduced Calorie Menus section (was however surprised to not see any mention of egg in any of the breakfast menus). A big Thank You!

Contained a fair amount of useful information and plenty of encouragement. Some of the example info such as diet or walking plan was particularly useful. A great overview for beginners to weight loss but longer-sufferers such as myself can learn something too.

OK, so my assessment that I am pleasingly plump doesn’t carry any weight with those I love. But do you have to equate health with weight? Now what excuse can I use? Seriously, thanks for the book and the campaign! Chaplain Paul Slater

star icon 5/30/2010 10:47:22 PM
First, the title of this booklet shouldn’t be "Aim for a Healthy Weight," it should be "Losing weight if you are overweight." There is absolutely no discussion of how to attain a healthy weight if someone is underweight, which occurs less often than obesity in the US but does occur nonetheless. Thus it perpetuates the misconception that thinner is always healthier. Second the advice of substituting certain foods for "healthier" choices often implies that reasonably healthy foods (like whole milk, granola, avocados) are equal culprits in a poor diet as truly empty calories in fast foods or deserts. Please, this is like telling someone who is just leaning how to swim that their form in the butterfly is bad. Concentrate on the basics like not eating fast food, limiting portions, before you worry about if they are drinking 2% milk. Third who wrote the ethnic section? Masala just means a blend of spices, not the calorie or fat content of the dish.

This booklet has a lot of good information to be used for class settings and for the individ. I truly like the BMI chart--for everyone to put it inside their kitchen cabinet so they see it often w/o showing it to the whole world. The best is the Moving Forward--setting goals--rewarding success. Very helpful and inspirational.

We are kicking off an EatWell/Live Well Campaign with members of our local Chamber of Commerce. It is a voluntary program that lasts for eight weeks to encourages participants to loss weight by walking 10,000 steps a day, eat five fruits and vegetables and reduce sugary beverages. Our jurisdiction includes the cities of Barberton and Norton in Northeast Ohio. This interactive website is an excellent resource that we would never be able to afford to create. Thanks.

The booklet is very appealing visually and very informative. My clients have expressed special appreciation for the restaurant section. The BMI chart has been an "eye opener" for some. It is NOT expensive in quantities and clients feel like that they are really getting something for their money - better than black & white copies.

I read this because I was trying to prepare a booklet for my patients. You use translated Spanish that is very repetitive and not idiomatic. My patients have 1-8TH grade education in Mexico and probably would not understand the context.

My problem is using the nose and mouth piece and then tried the chin strap with tubing similiar to my oxygen tubing...still can’t use. Part of my problem using the equipment comes from pre-existing illness. I do think it may help if I can use the machine.

This article contains information that has finally answered my long standing puzzle regarding my breathing problem during some of my night sleep. I now understand why my wife would sometimes wake me up in the middle of the night just to tell me that my breathing was irregular, actually stopping for a long time after loud inconsistent snoring, and suddenly jerking out of sleep or sometimes she would wake me up with fear in her face. She suspected beer to be the cause but I ignored it until after reading this article. Three signs fit my condition: loss of memory (complete loss after drinking beer), feeling irritable and mood swings. The suggested apnea diagnosis and treatment methods should be helpful. My only worry is that the CPAC gudgets don’t look comfortable. I must see a physician. Thank you for your article.

NHLBI Cardiovascular Disease Thought Leaders Meeting Report: Research Translation, Dissemination, and Application--Moving Toward a New Vision and Strategic Framework

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute is taking a new direction to achieve a higher level of excellence in research translation and dissemination, ensuring that the results of our research truly impact clinical practice and public health. The NHLBI convened a Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Thought Leaders Meeting to hear their vision of how to achieve greater penetration of NHLBI research results into the marketplace of new scientific ideas, effective medical practice, and consumer health.

The meeting was a rich source of input on three main issues:

1. Developing integrated approaches to CVD risk factor education programs and clinical guidelines
2. Enhancing dissemination of NHLBI-funded research
3. Fostering stakeholder collaboration and knowledge exchange

Other recommendations were:

1. Continue to produce single risk factor clinical practice guidance when warranted and also develop integrated science and clinical recommendations;
2. Work more closely with current stakeholders to help in translating and disseminating our science; and
3. Collaborate more broadly with other agencies and organizations in reaching those at high risk of developing heart disease.

We Can! (Ways to Enhance Children Activity and Nutrition) - Curriculum for Parents and Caregivers

We Can! Energize Our Families: Curriculum for Parents and Caregivers, is a six-lesson curriculum with dynamic activities for parents to encourage a healthy weight in their family. The core concept explored is "energy balance," or the long-term balance between ENERGY IN (calories from food) and ENERGY OUT (calories burned through activity). In a fun and hands-on way, the lessons focus on helping participants learn essential skills that can help their families increase access and availability of healthy foods and make healthful food choices, become more physically active, and reduce recreational screen time. At the end of each lesson, participants are encouraged to try new nutrition and physical activity tips with their families over the next week. Participants later share their experiences trying the new behavior with the group.

The full curriculum is also available in Appendix A of the We Can! Energize Our Community Toolkit for Action.

star icon star icon star icon star icon star icon 3/23/2011 2:52:06 AM
The DASH study results should be the basis for the way everyone eats. Unless you have a specific health issue that prevents you from using the the "DASH diet" you should be eating this way, this is how you should teach you children to eat, this is how you should feed your family. If every one in the U.S. Ate this way we would solve 8 of the ten top health issues in this country. The cost is nothing compared to the price we pay treating the conditions that are caused by poor dietary habits.

I have uncontrolled high BP. Still don’t have the right drugs for my pressure that goes as high as 200/130. Yet still I don’t have a headache or any bad symptoms. I have started Mrs Dash diet over a two wk period and my pressure is 140/90. I am going to continue this until I see a difference.

Jim Fixx died in 1984 (his arteries were plugged with too much cholesterol). His book The Complete Book of Running was a best seller. He thought that being super fit he could eat whatever he wanted. I’ve lost a ton of weight with another diet but this is better for BP and balanced nutrition. No need to take vitamins in an artificial form. The PDF is a million dollars worth of research diet book for FREE!

I have HBP and high cholesterol in my family. My father has had a serious heart attack and my uncle died from a heart attack. My doctor just tells me to eat right and excercise, but nothing more specific. This PDF download is great! My numbers are in a good place now and I am maintaining my weight. Would like to lose about 5 - 8% more weight, but need to excercise more. Thanks for the recipes!

Information is easy to understand, the guidelines are simple to follow. If everyone followed these basic concepts, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease would be greatly reduced.

Am 63. In seven weeks, lost 13 pounds, lowered BP significantly. Overall cholesterol went from 250 to 198; LDL from 155 to 125 and Triglycerides from 191 to 77. With only one kidney I was terrified of my doctor recommended medicine. Now she is almost as delighted as I am. Oh, and don’t forget the exercise which I do most days for thirty minutes. Also am never hungry and am enjoying the summer fresh veggies and fruits.

I give the NON-EXISTENT Spanish version 0 stars. I give the English version 5 stars but it is useless for all my Spanish-speaking patients with limited English. I can’t find a Spanish-language alternative to this publication. None of them provide such a comprehensive instruction on how to implement the DASH diet. PLEASE, I BEG OF YOU, TRANSLATE IT INTO SPANISH!! (would it help if I beg some more???)

The menu suggestions are way too complicated -- they seem to have been written for the 1950’s, with a mommy housewife in every suburban ranch house. 21st century folks often don’t have the time to make a dinner of 10 ingredients! A simpler, quick- or no-cooking version is needed, or seals of approval for frozen dinners that meet the DASH standards.

Like most, I’m trying to eat (and drink) better, including drinking more water. I’ve been buying gallons of "purified drinking water" from the local market, only to discover they have sodium bicarbonate and sodium sulfate in them "for flavor." I’ve switched to distilled water.

Thanks for the Dash eating plan. Doctors only want to medicate, without a search for cause. I’m convinced that even with hereditary factors, good food, reasonable exercise and minimal stress will lower blood pressure. Now I’m convinced based on the Dash study. Thanks for the free download - it made me trust the information more. I will buy books for my non-profit though.

I’ve lost and kept off 148 pounds following the DASH plan. I started out just adding a vegetable or two at meals. Then my husband joined in. Soon we were eating less salt & my blood pressure gradually went down. We both walk for exercise every day. My cholesterol went down to normal too. It took me five years to lose the weight, but I feel terrific that with DASH as a template, the weight loss is permanent for a longer and much healthier life. Thank you so much!

An excellent resource that can be consulted to help an individual take control of his/her dietary intake that will ultimately lead to lower blood pressure, weight loss and overall better health. The $3.50 price is cheap (or Web portal is free); many monthly magazines cost more than this and do not have near the amount of useful information this resource contains!

star icon star icon star icon star icon star icon 5/30/2007 1:00:11 AM
The potassium to sodium ratio is the key. Reducing salt is very important, but increasing potassium should be emphasized also. I have switched to eating more fresh fruits and vegetables and stay away from processed food as much as possible. I am now off the beta-blocker drugs. Why hasn’t the food industry cut back on salt? One can of Hormel chili has 2200 mg of sodium. You would think they don’t care about our health.

I think it would be reasonable to ask pts or clients to spend $3.50 for an excellent resource. If we all did some soul searching, we probably spend that much on a coffee or bag of potato chips, pretzels, etc. The price of a single book is very reasonable, in my opinion and if a pt is motivated, it is not too much to ask.

Following the DASH diet and lifestyle produced many positive health benefits. It lowered my blood pressure, reduced my cholesterol levels and my waist and weight went down as well. This is a common sense approach for anyone who wants to lead a healthy lifestyle. If you want to increase the quality and quantity of your lifespan then a sensible dietary approach like DASH is the way to do it!

I found the easy eating plans and the suggestions for planning my meals so easy to follow. I printed several of the pages from the PDF file after looking through the whole booklet of information. I had my annual check up yesterday and my blood pressure was down in the normal range, and I have lost 9 pounds! I am so happy I found your website and have shared it with others that are interested in knowing exactly what is good to eat and how to watch for that hidden sodium in so much of the food we eat. My doctor said I was the healthiest 65 year old woman she has seen! I combined the eating plan with a 2 mile walk every day, and I feel great because I found what works!

letters spacing words are all off, making it irritating and bothersome for the patients. It’s not teacher/user friendly The premise is excellent, the information would be vital, it’s simply not user friendly

Great Resource! It is too expensive to purchase for use in community nutrition where we depend largely on take home materials to reinforce concepts that have been taught. Hope you can come up with a PDF downloadable form that will be more economical.

As other reviewers pointed out, people with high cholesterol issues come in all ages, genders, and sizes. I’m researching for my very athletic, active, 30-something husband who happens to have an issue with high cholesterol. He does not need to lose weight, in fact he’s concerned about weight loss since he is so physically active. Will search more for better information for people in his situation, but there was some good information in this publication.

I just took the heart test and didn’t see anything about LDL which is bad cholesterol and the most important. My doc doesn’t pay attention to the total cholesterol, only the LDL and HDL. I am not overweight, low blood pressure and eat a very healthy diet plus exercising...and my LDL is high, doc recommended taking a statin three times a week, I’ll do that but am thinking the long term effects of statin use may not be that good.

Easy to understand; provides a number of foods to eat - Thank you for educating the public!!!

star icon star icon star icon 5/11/2010 3:29:14 PM
You know the reason it’s hard to get people to follow a diet like this? Because of the food choices you promote. Soft margarine instead of butter? Yuuuuck. Fat-free cheese instead of somethihg with authentic, satisfying flavor? Oh, please. Fake food is one of the reasons we’re so fat. People are substituting quantity for quality. The general guidelines are good, but somebody needs to strangle the dietician and hire a chef. We’ll all lose weight and get thinner if the trip there isn’t godawful. If that’s the way I’ve gotta eat for the rest of my life, I’d rather die young.

I’m forty, female and not obese - and I have high cholesterol. What is with the images of grandpa? I thought high cholesterol was a national problem; not reserved for males over 60. Your images do not reflect reality.

Unfortunately this diet is hard to find and even my cardiologist didn’t know about it. Fortunately we found it and wish that every doctor knew about it. It is easy to understand, easy to do and it WORKS! Whether or not you have a cholesterol issue, this is an excellent way just to eat and understand it.

star icon star icon star icon 7/8/2009 2:06:00 AM
This appears to use most of the dogmatic approach of the American Heart Association, rather than taking into consideration newer evidence that shows that not all saturated fats are the same, that carbohydrates are more damaging on the whole than saturated or total fat intake, that animal products are generally damaging in the diet, and that cholesterol consumption dramatically affects circulating cholesterol. Very disappointing considering the excellent work that NCEP does. However, this document is better than nothing for the general population.

Does "Dr" Anderson also believe that manipulating the spine will prevent/cure heart disease too. It is interesting that the only people who typically identify themselves with "Dr" before their names are PhDs or chiropractors -- guess they’re trying to give themselves some credibility

star icon 12/29/2008 3:17:26 AM
Dietary cholesterol does not increase heart disease risk, nor do saturated fats. Countless studies have tested these outdated theories and failed every time to find any benefit from them. Wrong dietary information means more people ending up on drugs -- which is evidently the point of the whole exercise. Dr. Thomas Anderson, Ph.D. Summerland, British Columbia

I already have high blood pressure and I was recently diagnosed with diabetes. My doctor said my cholesterol was in the danger area, so I guess all of these conditions put me in the Metabolic Syndrome area. She prescribed a different HBP med and suggested diet and exercise. Changing a lifetime of bad habits is not easy but with the help of the TLC guide I’ve already started to lose weight and I am actually looking forward to my next doctor’s appt. because I am making actual progress towards my goals of losing weight and exercising. Thank you so much for this guide, we can all benefit from a lot of TLC.

Need-to-know-need-to-do info is what I need for my patients. A one-pager on good sleep hygeine (with getting the TV out of the bedroom as its own bullet point) would be great.

In the section "Tips to Avoid Drowsy Driving," there is a missing tip: Chewing gum can avoid drowsiness. Like some of the other tips, this tip will not work if you are truly sleep deprived but it has had demonstrated success in overcoming drowsiness caused by driver boredom.

Thanks for giving this out for free. It seems that most sites want to charge you just for being on their site. I have been looking for some kind of chart to go by telling me how many of each group I should be eating.

I found ’Your Daily Calorie Needs’ and ’What’s On Your Plate And How Much Are You Moving’ very helpful. I have concrete tools to help me lower my sodium and control my weight that I can actually follow. Thanks so much.

This is the best. Since starting DASH in August, I have lost 32 pounds - my blood pressure has dropped from an uncontrollable 170/100 on medication to 118/77. I have lost over 7 inches off my waist and I feel better than I have in years.

I am a 52 year old white male and have been eating per this diet for 8 weeks, along with moderate exercise, and only 0,1, or 2 drinks per day and have lost 25 lbs. Blood pressure went from 160/90 to 130/75 and at times even lower. I plan to keep it up and lose another 10 lbs. By the way - I quit smoking about the same time and lost this weight! Now - I need to make it lifestyle change and not a diet.

This guide should be in every doctor’s office. I think that doctors should hand this out to patients with their prescriptions. Healthy eating is a must with high blood pressure and the guide shows you how to do that.

I think that this is a great brief to get started with. High blood pressure is a very serious disease and every helpful hint or remedy that I can obtain is wonderful. To the person that made the comment about all the decorative pages and what ever else they rambled on about, the decorative pages mean nothing if you are willing to look at the great information that is in it. They obviously needed to complain about something and didn’t have anyone else to complain to.

My husband lowered his blood pressure, without drugs and in a matter of weeks, from 185/105 to a reasonable 140/95ish. With a minimum of medication he should be in the acceptable range and much, much healthier overall.

star icon 11/23/2007 4:34:33 AM
Sorry, but something without enough content to be worth making available online as text without fancy text and accompanying pictures is not something I have any interest in--and if in fact this does have useful content but I can’t access it without having to deal with distracting decorative type and images, then this is again something I have no interest in.

I had suspected that my condition was circulatory in nature but I was uncomfortable seeing a physician before I could better explain my symptoms. I also needed help in identifying which symptoms were worth noting. For example, I did not imagine that nighttime leg cramps could be a symptom of P.A.D. I believe that an educated patient is a better patient because medical providers require cooperation and understanding of the situation of their patients to be better able to guide and assist them. NIH indeed helps build better patient-physician teams! Thank you for this publication and all the valuable information you provide to the public.

COPD Educational Strategy Development Workshop

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) convened a 2-day Education Strategy Development Workshop on Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) on September 22-23, 2004, in Alexandria, Virginia. The purpose of the workshop was to bring together relevant stakeholders--COPD patients and caregivers, members of advocacy organizations, clinicians, representatives of National health organizations and coalitions, and Federal Government representatives--to identify what is currently being done to address COPD education issues and what gaps in education exist. The primary recommendation made to NHLBI at the conclusion of the workshop was to develop and implement a public awareness campaign on COPD that targets patients and those at risk as well as health care providers.

Pre-Hospital 12-Lead Electrocardiography Programs: A Call for Implementation by Emergency Medical Services Systems Providing Advanced Life Support

Emergency medical services (EMS) providers who administer advanced life support should include diagnostic 12-lead electrocardiography programs as one of their services. Evidence demonstrates that this technology can be readily used by EMS providers to identify patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) before a patient’s arrival at a hospital emergency department. Earlier identification of STEMI patients leads to faster artery-opening treatment with fibrinolytic agents, either in the pre-hospital setting or at the hospital. Alternatively, a reperfusion strategy using percutaneous coronary intervention can be facilitated by use of pre-hospital 12-lead electrocardiography (P12ECG). Analysis of the cost of providing this service to the community must include consideration of the demonstrated benefits of more rapid treatment of patients with STEMI and the resulting time savings advantage shown to accompany the use of P12ECG programs.

As for the person who feels the new administration needs to put on there endorsement, my statement is this. The book is wonderful. And a few more up to date stats would be nice, but it is costly to make changes and go for a new print. Lets leave politics out of this and just go with the facts...we would all be better served if politics would stay out of this completely...

I have used this material for 3 years also, as another reviewer mentioned and, yes, it is excellent as a teaching tool and for it’s timeless information. However, since we have a new President in the White House, it seems tacky to not have revamped it to accomodate this change. I cannot imagine Michelle Obama or Jill Biden not being agreeable to put their influence and name into this campaign for women’s heart health. I wish you could do a quick do-over but please consider it for next year. Nothing has changed except the better statistics in six years. It is time to stop resting on your laurels and reinvigorate this worthwhile endeavor.

Having just been diagnosed with premature menopause at 39 years old, I am earnestly searching for what problems I might be facing with my decreased estrogen. Increased risk for heart disease is one of them, and I am searching for everything I can find on risk factors, modifiable or not. This is a easy and quick read. I would think that insurance companies would want to include this in their new member packages if applicable. Thanks for providing this important information.

I intend to follow up with my doctor but most important I am now making LIFE CHANGES so that these symptoms will no longer be an issue. I want to thank you for freely giving out this information. It is truly life saving and and eye opener.

Guidelines are set for non-athletic, non-active conditions. I am OK with 7.5mg Prednose a day at 85-90% peak flow (aka Green zone) - as long as I don’t do anything. No excercise, no stress at work. If I add a warm-up swim (25 min, reaching 85% HR), within two months I’m at 60% peak flow (borderline Red zone). So, 85-90% peak flow is not good enough to start swimming. Let alone starting intensive 90 minute workouts.

The general information noted is very helpful, but the heights should be noted in inches, not centimeters. Clinical staff don’t have time to convert inches to centimeters, and after the newborn period, we know of few places - at least in our city - that measure children in centimeters.

Providing diastolic blood pressure data would have made this truly useful. I think most clinicians who are taking hypertension seriously (and likely to use this card) ought to use the complete--albeit complicated--charts previously published.

I’m very surprised that a booklet published in 2008 is still promoting the use of margarine and "light mayonaise". Margarine is known to be less healthy than butter as it is usually made of hydrogenated vegetable oils (extremely unnaturally processed) which contain trans fats = something that your body can’t properly digest and it just makes you gain more weight. Try regular (preferably organic) butter or something like Earth Balance (a healthy non-hydrogenated butter substitute) or an even healthier and delicious oil like coconut oil instead. In terms of the light mayo, i’m not sure how bad that is for you or how they make it "light" but I’m guessing its some intense processing that is probably best avoided. In the potato salad recipe try using mashed avocados instead of mayo - it’s delicious, creamy and contains healthy fats your body needs. In general i think this guide and others like it should promote less processed foods and more simple, natural ingredients. It would also be nice to see a few vegetarian main courses designed for a later edition of this booklet. Overconsumption of meat is associated with many health problems and it’s something the community should be aware of. However, i also want to say I think its a great idea to put out a guide like this and I appreciate it being made available, so thanks for that!

why is it there is an african american style and latino style cookbook? do white people not deserve a cookbook as well? Let me guess it’s the other cookbook not labeled with an ethnic designation, because to call it a caucasian cookbook would be discriminatory.

I would love to try some of these during the holidays. It should help my progress continue, even then. Thanks!

why offer this in the recipes section if you have to buy the recipes you could use the $4.00 for the book to buy some needed fruits and vegs for your heart healthy home cooking very discouraging

star icon star icon star icon star icon star icon 6/17/2010 7:59:33 PM
Why are folks complaining about not seeing it on-line? The file opened right away and the recipes are clear, colorful and simple to follow. Love it!

I haven’t cooked all the dishes yet but I downloaded the pamphlet and I like what I see. I am already using some of the modifications that are suggested, but I like the spicing suggestions in some of the recipes.

Although the ignorant below freaked out as soon as they saw the Amazon style webpage, the book is still free to view with adobe acrobat. Click on the picture of the book before posting a lame unfriendly comment

I found all the recipes, all u have to do is click on pdf and it will show as long as u have pdf platform on your computer. I was able to pull the information up without paying a penny for them. Anyway, I found the recipes to be similar to the recipes that I am currently using and some with different ingredients. So, I beileve that they will be very tasty and some I’ve never tried b 4 but my mouth watered reading it. I can hardly wait to try them out. Thanks

I jumped the gun a bit and read the other reviews first without even attempting to download the book myself. You can view and download this as a PDF, I have an many of the receipes shown I am very much impressed with. Again I apologize for my previous review, I am the type of person to admit I was wrong and I can 100% say that I was. I hope everyone that comes to this site checks out the receipes many of them are really good, look almost like a page out of my personal cookbook....Thanks!!!

I was able to open the PDF without any problems at all. I am going to print out and use IMMEDIATELY. I have been in a "recipe funk" and I am looking forward to trying some of the amazing recipes ASAP. Some of the recipes include: Candied Yams, Classic Mac & Cheese, Spicy Okra, Crispy Oven Fried Chicken, Mouth-Watering Oven-Fried Fish, Peach Cobbler and Mock-Southern Sweet Potato Pie....yum, yum, yum. I am so glad this resource is out there. Move over Emeril.....BAM!

The sequence of the directions in the recipe for Jerk Chicken should start with washing/marinating the chicken breasts before preheating the oven. No reason to start the oven, then read on and discover it’s going to be 6 hours before you cook anything! 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Wash chicken and pat dry. 2. Combine all ingredients except chicken in large bowl. Rub seasonings over chicken and marinate in refrigerator for 6 hours or longer.

Interesting recipes, but there’s a mistake on the Jerk Chicken recipe. It tells you to preheat your oven, then marinade the chicken for 6 hours! Hopefully nobody left their oven on for 6 hours while the chicken marinated...

As an African American, all of the recipes on this site were like staples to me and unfortunately unhealthy.

The Spanish presentation of the materials in the website is badly translated. The text uses the worng words, is incoherent and confusing. If this is an attempt to cultural competence, it is deplorable.

There was far to much information to make this a good clinical guideline. It would be nice if there was a point by point summary of what should be done sustantiated by evidenced base trials for us to follow in the book. If more information and reference is needed then the report could be reviewed.

star icon star icon 8/10/2009 11:54:51 PM
I agree with previous reviewers. Poor choice of font size and background color only serve to further irritate readers who are expecting a concise summary of diagnosis and management of asthma. The important details are buried in heavy text and the document is too long.

star icon star icon 6/15/2009 10:56:08 AM
Guidelines should be a few pages long. Not 74 to 440 pages. This is a textbook. Too many subdivisions of asthma classification to be useful for the average practitioner.

What happened to the excellent 6-page summary that I used to be able to hand out to my students and to an occasional physician who hadn’t seen it yet? It is essential to keep a summary brief. I tried to use some of the charts but they are unreadable when copied. Did you plan for this information to be disseminated and actually used in practice?

The ever important classification and management of asthma is buried in the text. Please refer to your own 2003 summary publication that was 5-6 pages and please reproduce that format. The 2003 summary was easier to present to students than this current publication.

star icon star icon 9/1/2008 3:39:17 PM
This is a very good guide to diagnosing and treating asthma, but it is by no means a summary. Granted it’s a novella compared to the full 440 page report, but it is still much too long to be a useful summary. A 15 to 20 page summary would be nice and we have the full report if further guidance is needed.

star icon star icon 7/15/2008 11:51:48 AM
Very poor publicity for this important publication. What a sad waste.

star icon star icon 7/7/2008 12:58:24 PM
Since report is only available by download you would think those responsible for its design would take the reproduction needs into account. No such luck. The tables are replete with grey halftones which reproduce very poorly. Printing in black and white on a laser printer is an eyestrain. Recopying that on a copier makes it virtually unreadable. It seems the authors/producers of these "publications" are so mesmerized by the cute graphics and color schemes that they could care less about practical issues like readability. So sorely disappointed I can’t even critique the content.

The overall summary does give much useful information, and buried in it are helpful charts (though too dark - why not use color or greyscale rather than black?). I’d like a simple reference with the diagnostic and stepwise treatment charts available without having to download a >4 MB size PDF and search through it all to find them.

We Can! Energize Our Families: Parent Program - A Leader’s Guide

This guide provides a four lesson curriculum (90 minutes per lesson) with dynamic activities for parents to encourage a healthy weight in their family. The core concept of energy balance is emphasized, i.e., the longterm balance between energy in (calories from food) and energy out (calories burned through activity). The lessons are fun and hands-on, with a focus on helping participants learn essential skills that can help their families increase access to and availability of healthy foods, make healthful food choices, become more physically active, and reduce recreational screen time. Participants are encouraged to try new nutrition and physical activity tips with their families, and they are then asked to share their experiences of trying the new behaviors with the group.

NOTE - NHLBI encourages all customers who order the We Can Leader Guide to also order 10 copies of the We Can Family Guide, which can be distributed to your friends, neighbors, co-workers, patients, or others.

My ICD has been recalled but the Doctor’s said they think that it’s better not to remove it at this time, I got my ICD in 2004 when I was 40 years old and in the last year it has saved my life 2 times. I am very thankful to have it, I wish there was a support group that I could get with . It would be nice to find someone else that goes through what I go through

Guidelines Implementation Panel Report for Expert Panel Report 3 - Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Asthma

The Guidelines Implementation Panel (GIP) Report presents recommendations and strategies for overcoming barriers to the acceptance and utilization of the updated NHLBI clinical practice guidelines for asthma. At the heart of the GIP Report are six key messages to address those issues considered to be the most likely ones to result in significant impact on asthma care processes and outcomes if the broader asthma community were to focus its attention and resources on them. The GIP Report is a call to action by the full range of guideline end-users, including medical professionals, office support staff, educators, administrators, policy makers, purchasers and payors of healthcare services in both the private and public sectors.

The guidelines are too large, if you want people with a busy life to go and actually use it then find a way to minimize it to 5 pages and in a chart. The JNC 7 at least has a small chart version for physicians, its time for some progress in your field. Yes I understand that there are many instances and variables that need to be accounted for but this is pathetic, some people out there actually see patients (more than 10 a day) and cant spend that much time reading this 75 page document.

Provides key tipping points for the effective implementation of the Guidelines and the importance of a multipronged approach, the role of collective action and collaboration. Also provides straightforward first steps to this considerable challenge.

Boiling the 6 key messages from the way-too-long-to-read EPR-3 was extremely important for providers and all who take care of patients with asthma. Those key points should have been widely disseminated, not buried!

The cocoa spiced beef tenderloin with pineapple salsa recipe sounded so exotic, yet the ingredients were familiar enough and available at the local grocery store. These recipes have pulled my family out of the rut we’d gotten ourselves into. What a way to start the new year!

I took my copy to my Weight Watchers Meeting and when the ladies saw it and I told them it was $5 they were all busy copying down the order information. It is a georgeous book. The website is great too, simply beautiful. The best part is they are delicious recipes, not hard to make and having the large clear chart on food values is an asset.

The recipes are fantastic! I’ve made over a dozen so far and each has been terrific and easy to make. My favorites so far are: Greek Style Flank Steak with Yogurt Sauce, Edamame Stew, Pasta Puttanesca, Asian Style Steamed Salmon, Turkey Burgers, Savory Brown Rice, Red Snapper with Zesty Tomato Sauce...I could keep going. And, for only $5, this cookbook is a fabulous deal! I’m going to order copies for my entire family for the holidays.

Recipes for easy to fix, really good food -- I know it because I picked up recipes at a conference where this was featured and I made chicken, the cous-cous with raisins, cinnamon and nuts . . . MMMMM! I highly recommend it.

Expert Panel Report 3 (EPR3): Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Asthma

The EPR 3 Guidelines on Asthma was developed by an expert panel commissioned by the National Asthma Education and Prevention Program (NAEPP) Coordinating Committee (CC), coordinated by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health. Using the 1997 EPR 2 guidelines and the 2004 update of EPR 2 as the framework, the expert panel organized the literature review and final guidelines report around four essential components of asthma care, namely: assessment and monitoring, patient education, control of factors contributing to asthma severity, and pharmacologic treatment. Subtopics were developed for each of these four broad categories.

I have seen so many heart healthy recipes that sound (and taste) so boring. These are absolutely delicious! Thanks.

star icon star icon star icon star icon star icon 12/18/2005 10:11:24 AM
It really works Some of these recipes we have already tried from another recipe booklet I found last year. They are really heart healthy and they taste wonderful. I have recieved many compliments on the recipes we have tried. It is worth getting the recipe booklets here. Thanks so much for the variety.

Missing Carb Info The recipes look great. However, given the fact that individuals with diabetes have a substantially greater risk for cardiovascular disease over the general population, I am very surprised to find that carbohydrate grams are not provided for them. Will you be updating the recipes soon to include them? Thanks. Diane Zemel, MS RD CDE

star icon star icon star icon star icon star icon 4/12/2005 9:50:23 AM
RE: Question about carbs? I enjoy the great recipes from your online newsletter but was curious as to why you never list the carbohydrates per serving for those recipes? The recipes are usually low in fat but with the proven facts linking high-carbs with weight gain most consumers are trying to watch their carbs as well. I myself have lowered my carb intake and have lost 10lbs in just over a month (now at 5’ 11" and 178lbs). I’ve actually avoided many of what appeared to be great tasting recipes simply because they appear to be high in carbs. Hope you’ll reconsider listing the carbs per serving on future recipe postings...I’m sure I’m not the only one out there that would like to see this! Thanks, Don

Excellent hoping this will lower our LDL. Thank you.

Your recipes look very exciting - not just the same old thing. But how about including the carbohydrate counts for those diabetics who plan their meals around carb counts.

This clinical advisory statement from the Coordinating Committee of the National High Blood Pressure Education Program is intended to advance and clarify the recommendations of the Sixth Report of the Joint National Committee on the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC VI, 1997).1 The advisory addresses several interrelated issues about blood pressure (BP) that affect people approaching the later decades of life.

Public Health in Public Housing: Improving Health, Changing Lives

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), DHHS, hosted the Education Strategy Development Workshop: Public Health in Public Housing - Improving Health, Changing Lives on May 5 and 6, 2004. The purpose of the Workshop was to have both public health and public housing professionals share intervention strategies they have found to be successful in engaging public housing residents in community-based activities for health and community development. The Workshop focused on ways to control asthma and improve the cardiovascular health of residents in public housing settings. The outcome of the workshop was the development of four innovative public health in public housing frameworks to inform future public health CVD and asthma programming efforts in public housing settings.

I found out about the Heart Truth foundation while shopping for a sewing machine. I came across the Janome HT-2008, a special edition machine put out to help support the Heart Truth foundation. Upon reseaching the logo and foundation I teared up, then I smiled. My mother was a seamstress that died at the young age of 48 due to heart disease. I am very pleased with this dvd and NHLBI for getting the word out...Love the dvd can’t wait for the next one. Thank You, Alester

Surgeon General’s Call to Action to Prevent Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism 2008

This Surgeon General’s Call to Action aims to draw attention to deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), serious public health problems that receive little attention. An estimated 350,000 to 600,000 Americans each year suffer from DVT/PE, and at least 100,000 deaths are thought to be related to these diseases each year. The Call to Action presents background information on the diseases and the major public health problem they represent and discusses means to reduce the risk for DVT/PE, increase awareness, and bridge the gaps in application of preventive and therapeutic treatment. A catalyst for action, the publication calls for development of a coordinated plan to reduce the morbidity and mortality caused by DVT/PE, and encourages all levels of government as well as individuals and private sector institutions and organizations to work together to prevent and reduce the incidence of DVT/PE.

Working Group Report on Problem Sleepiness

Although problem sleepiness and its consequences affect all segments of society to some extent, the working group selected the target audiences of (1) shift workers and (2) adolescents and young adults because there is evidence that the prevalence of problem sleepiness is high and increasing in these groups, with particularly serious consequences. Problem sleepiness in both these target groups and society in general is largely related to lifestyle, and data are strong enough to warrant directing educational messages to these groups.

While much of the content is still relevant the entire document needs to be updated. I believe it was written back in 1995 and quite a few changes have been made to the guidelines and medications available since then. It would also be wise to re-visit your instructions on how to engage the patient and how to communicate effectively with different cultures. Please update this document.

One of the best government related publications and better then health magazines as it provides evidence based practices, reviews and compares research in chart format, answers questions about weight loss issues and backs these answers with research-the references cited alone is worth this document for students for finding source materials- Fantastic job on easy to read charts for BMI conversions etc- All explained so professionals and average readers can glean much valuable information- bookmark this reference and I am passing the word on this job well done-

From Heart to Heart: A Bilingual Group Discussion Kit/Del corazón al corazón: componentes bilingües de discusión en grupo (bilingual English, Spanish)

Written in English and Spanish, this guide explains how to organize and conduct two 1-hour educational sessions (Charlas) on heart health targeting the Latino community. The guide comes with an educational video in Spanish. Each group discussion includes a video presentation, followed by a guided discussion and question-and-answer period. The guide contains ideas for choosing a facilitator and advertising the charla; a list of materials needed for the sessions; background information for the facilitator; a master copy of handouts to reproduce before the sessions; and ideas for optional activities such as blood cholesterol and blood pressure screenings, nutrition counseling, and heart-healthy food demonstrations. Can be used for small or large groups. The video includes two sections, one "For the Love of Your Heart" focuses on the prevention of the risk factors for heart disease, and the other "Cooking With Your Heart in Mind" takes viewers on a heart-healthy food shopping tour with Felícita Bernier, R.D., and shows them ways to prepare delicious heart-healthy Latino dishes. The acclaimed journalist María Elena Salinas shares her personal experience.

The resources should be free to local government agencies such as County Clinics and we need to remember to check for reading level. Thank you

I shared the kit at the Hawaii Society for Respiratory Care Conference and folks were very interested in it, including the Community College Respiratory Therapy Department, the Hawaii Society for Respiratory Care, and Windward Oahu Asthma Coalition, and other groups who saw the kit. They are all planning to get kits to help increase awareness about COPD. Thanks to NHLBI, COPD Foundation and HagerSharp for a very attractive resource kit that has broad appeal. It will really help raise visibility and awareness.
