Most people I’m sure already know about this but I found it good to refresh my knowledge of the basic guidelines for food combining. If nothing else these guidelines indicate which foods are more compatible and why. Even if they are not always strictly adhered to, they are a good guiding principle to have in mind when thinking about meals.
Nine Rules for Proper Food Combining
Some salient things:
- There are starchy and non-starchy vegetables
- Non starchy vegetables combine well with proteins, unlike starchy ones
- Don’t mix starches and acids
- In general, eat fruits before other things since they will digest more easily and quickly in the body
- Proteins can take hours to be fully digested. Always eat them last.
