Note: The American Heart Association is now advising heart patients to follow vegan standards – for a diet low in saturated fats, high in vegetable and grain fiber (artery cleansing) and vitamins and minerals (artery strengthening).

I note that it depends upon how you cook things – as vegan foods can also be fried, and we need to select our cooking oils for optimal nutritional value. 🙂 – Chef Dana

Of course, every diet should be balanced, happy and delicious!

**Bragg’s Liquid Aminos product is made from soy and purified water, and is similar to soy sauce, but less salty & with amino acids and unlike soy sauce is not fermented / because of the amino acid profile it is considered a health booster (vs regular soy sauce)
