Learn the Tips of Food Combining for Better Health Part 1

Posted on December 13, 2015December 14, 2015 by zaki250

For many of us, we enjoy eating. This activity was intended as a source of nourishment for the body, modern day nutritional innovations avoid the correct food combining methods, they do the opposite. A traditional diet involves mixing everything together in each possible way. The goal is not ease of digestion, but the delight of the senses in a meal. According to Dr. Tilden, “Nature never produced a sandwich-a modern nutritional disgrace”. Such starch-protein combinations are modern origin and like many modern meals today, instead of feeding the body, it really poison it.

Bad food combining creates indigestion, fermentation and gas. In the intestines food is fermenting and putrefying, which is the main cause of constipation, a clogging up of the bodily tissues. When eating for health, the goal should be the simplicity of the meal; which includes the right proper food combining principles, eating the right amount at a time and only eating when you are truly hungry. Some foods take longer to digest than others and should not be eaten with foods that digest faster. Eating one type of food at a time such as fruit or vegetable would be the ideal. Variety is one way to have enjoyment when it comes to food, especially when it comes to health minded people, this should be approached with care.
