Food Combinations and Enjoying Your Food

I know that for many of you, you find that after you have had a meal, even though you enjoyed it at the time, you may well have felt like you want to die.

Or, perhaps a little less dire, you have felt bloated, uncomfortable, and generally, a little ill, even though you know the food you ate was perfectly OK, as others have not reacted negatively to it. So, you may ask, what has the problem been?

The answer is that you have eaten food, without considering the combinations of food you have eaten, and thus, accidently mixed foods that do not digest well, in your digestive system, together.

Can You Explain this a little Better to me?

Yes, I can.

Different foods are different in their chemical composition. Some are alkaline, and others are more acidic.

Acid is at one end of the spectrum, whilst alkaline is at the other end, (the opposite of acidic foods), and the two are not too compatible in our digestive systems.

I understand the fact that some people can seemingly eat all that they like, in seemingly uncontrolled quantities, and in any combination, and seem perfectly OK. Yes, this does happen, and those people are very lucky.

However, it is still a good idea to ensure that you are eating the right foods in the right groups, so as to avoid any problems at a later time.

This is a point that has been well explained by Sherry Brescia, who used to suffer terribly from this very condition.

I have written more about this in detail at the Food Combinations website to explain this in more detail. Sherry offers a free manual to explain the details a little better than I can, but essentially, if you think of eating meat, and then, toping it off with a desert of fruit, the fruit will deacy in a different way to the meat, through the digestive system, and can cause bloating, as well as a feeling of general discomfort and more.

You may be one of those people that suffers from this very uncomfortable condition.

The good news is that with an attitude of taking the time to mix the right foods together, you will be able to enjoy your food as you do today, without paying the price later on, after the meal.

Now, that is good news.

A further example to illustrate this is as follows:

Do not consume starch and sugars together. Jellies, jams, fruit, butter, sugar, honey, syrups, molasses, etc., on bread, cake, or at the same meal with cereals, potatoes, etc., or sugar with cereal, will produce fermentation. The practice of eating starches that have been disguised by sweets is also a bad way to eat carbohydrates. If sugar is taken into the mouth it quickly fills with saliva but no ptyalin is present which we know is essential for starch digestion.

As you can see, there is much to be gained from this resource..

This will also greatly aid in your general digestive health as well.
