FOOD COMBINING...GOOD FOR QUALITY OF LIFE?

Q. So, what is the latest on food combining? Do people still do it and is it beneficial?
Karen T.


A. Food combining as a way of improving health and even loosing weight seemed to peak the late 1980's. Most folks find "hard core" food combining too exclusionary and rigid to be practical for everyday life. 

In theory, lumping (combining) your food into separately digested groups makes sense. Our bodies do digest different food groups in different stomach (or bowel) areas at different times of the day.

Practically speaking, its just too hard of a dietary practice to maintain for the long term. Most folks to whom I talked could maintain the diet for a week or two, then human nature takes over. I personally feel that God never meant for basic human nutrition to be such a burdensome process. To have to think and worry about what you can and cannot eat when combined with each other is eroding the quality of life.
