Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in America with African-American and Latino women facing the highest risk.
That’s why Louisiana Public Broadcasting presented Holiday Lites, heart healthy holiday cooking demonstrations, and a special preview of the upcoming PBS series The Mysterious Human Heart
Registered Dieticians Tosha Henagan and Celia Wattigny from Lane Regional Medical Center and Libby Quintana and Kristina Bradford from Whole Foods Market discussed heart healthy eating and prepared healthier versions of Louisiana’s favorite holiday recipes.
