Dr. Mercola always has very "cutting edge" health tips and I love this article on how to avoid health problems including weight gain. At least ten years ago I read a book on this same theory. I have tried to find the book or even the title without success. Thank You Dr. Mercola for publishing this interview with Dr. Wayne Pickering !
- Improper food combining is one of the primary factors that cause gas, flatulence, heartburn, and upset stomach. What’s worse, the resulting poor digestion can also contribute to malnutrition, even if you think you’re eating a decent diet
- Disease is just as much a matter of eliminating toxins as it is about eating proper foods. Elimination, however, is dependent on a healthy digestive system
- Food combination takes into account the area and complexity of digestion of each food, to ensure it goes through your entire digestive system with ease
- One of the most important factors when it comes to healthful eating is to make sure you’re eating foods, native to your local area, that are in season
- The two foremost rules of food combining are:
- 1) No proteins and starches at the same meal- this one is hard!!! Think meat and potatoes-yikes.
- 2) No fruits and vegetables at the same meal
- I always eat fruit alone!!!! Eat fruit 30-60 minutes before a meal!! This way it digests without "rotting" in your gut!!!
