Donald A Gazzaniga / Maureen A Gazzaniga
Living Well Without Salt was written by Donald Gazzaniga, the creator of our current 'no salt' world. He was first to write a no salt, lowest sodium cookbook aimed at helping those who needed to cut salt out of their lives for survival or an improved lifestyle. He was the first on the Internet with a no-salt Web site in 1997: www.megaheart.com. Since then he's responded to more than 100,000 E-mails and letters from those who needed help converting to a no salt lifestyle. They also provided the author with a sense of the positive responses visitors were having when using his 28-day meal planning guide and his recipes. Like his own experience, many visitors had reversed heart disease, hypertension. Added benefits were realized by Meniere's patients who had been able to control their debilitating dizziness. Below is from the back cover of his new book, 'Living Well Without Salt.' This book contains 200 of Don's best recipes and it also helps guide readers with a great deal of information based mostly on Don's experience at reversing his congestive heart disease.

We have all of your books in our clinic. They are such a big help in showing patients that they can still eat the foods they like in a lower sodium version and improve their health.
