Healthy Recipe Center is Launched by Food and Health Communications  Food and Health Communications, Inc has just launched a new online healthy recipe center for nutrition educators and consumers. Dietitians and other educators can use the nutrient search tools to find just the right recipe for their clients based on calories, fiber, fat, carbohydrates, sodium and protein. They can also print or email recipes to their clients. And they can create attractive PDF handouts for each recipe. There are 2 categories that are very unique and useful for health educators. The first is a cooking demo recipe category, which features recipes that are recommended for cooking demonstrations. The other category is called Chef’s Favorites and this enables everyone to find the very best recipes by scanning quickly.
