Food combining rules
- Do not combine fruit with vegetables.
- Do not consume melons with any other foods.
- Better to eat one single fruit at a time.
- Do not combine sweet fruits with foods that require a long digestive time.
- Use fats sparingly.
- Do not consume concentrated fats with proteins.
- Avoid boiled or fried oil.
It is not what we eat, but what we digest and assimilate, that determines the nourishment our bodies receive. Food combining is based on the discovery that certain combinations of food may be digested with greater ease and efficiency than others. [2]
