Plaque is the stuff of coronary heart disease. It is CONTROLLABLE, it is STOPPABLE, it is REVERSIBLE.
But you must be equipped with the right information on diet, nutritional supplements, and hopefully the avoidance of medication.

Love your book, blog and everything you stand for. Just wish I could get my mother in law and sister in law on board. My husband has lost 35 pounds since eating primal and cutting out almost all the wheat. We are at 90% and working on the last 10 %.
So the only thing I get tripped up on in your recipes is the sweetener. We use liquid stevia in our coffee but I see no way to determine how much would be equivalent to one cup of sweetener. Do you have a particular brand you could recommend so I can start trying some of these recipes?

I think the key, Jana, is to pick your sweetener of choice, then get familiar with its characteristics and stick with it.
My favorite: KAL liquid stevia that a friend introduced to me. SweetLeaf stevia powder is a good product, made with inulin, as well as Trader Joe”s powdered stevia, likewise made with inulin. Truvia is a good product, though costly. If you can find it, bulk erythritol is a good product. All differ in quantity to use to equal the sweetness of sugar.
Looks like a great recipe Dr. Davis! I plan to try it. I may even have a picture for you, if I can keep from eating them all first.
I appreciate your work.
I made them. They were wonderful! Take a look: http://ginnyslowcarbkitchen.blogspot.com/2012/05/orange-cream-cookies.html Thanks!
