‘Mouth-Healthy Cookbook’ now available in Spanish BY JORDAN ROGERS
“
Glendale Star Staff Writer
Mouth-Healthy Cookbook,” a free cookbook made in collaboration with nutritionists and oral health experts, has been released in Spanish. The book, which was created in collaboration between Neighborhood Outreach Access to Health (NOAH) and Delta Dental of Arizona, features nearly two dozen easy-to-make recipes that promote whole-person health. “There is a direct connection between the foods you eat and your oral health, as well as between oral health and overall health,” said Dr. Connie Tucker, chief medical officer of NOAH. “A diet rich in lean protein, calcium, fiber and antioxidants paired with low sugar and low acidity is not only the perfect rec-
ipe for healthy teeth and gums, but it promotes overall wellness in individuals of all ages.” Divided into five sections — breakfast, main dishes, snacks, desserts and beverages — the book not only has an ingredient list for every recipe for ease of grocery shopping and step-bystep instructions, but also infographics under each recipe that denote which combination of six wellness categories each dish falls into. Those categories are Lower in Sugar, Good Source of Protein, Lower in Acid, Good Source of Fiber, Good Source of Calcium and Good Source of Antioxidants. NOAH and Delta Dental also filmed a series of video tutorials to accompany the cookbook. The videos, available in both English and Spanish, are posted on
NOAH’s website and on Delta Dental’s YouTube Channel now. There is an English-language version of the book available as well. “As part of our mission to improve lives by promoting optimal oral health, we are always looking for ways to broaden our reach to the community,” said Michael Jones, president and chief executive officer of Delta Dental of Arizona and chair of the Delta Dental of Arizona Foundation. “When the concept of the cookbook came up organically, we jumped at the chance to co-create something to connect oral health to overall health in a very important and personal way through food.” The book is available to download for free at noahhelps.org/ boca-sana-libro-de-cocina.
