Guest guest Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 it is s wonderful book and i was so excited by it that i flew across the world to study with him yes there are merits to food comobining and i have tried it. however the issue it not quite so simple (is anything?) I think that on a plant based veg (Esp vegan) diet it is kinda irrelevent unless one is eating slabs of tofu which is not a health condusive thing either! grains and legumes have both carbs and protein in them and if prepared well and in good amounts with veggies etc that is generally okay. I do agree that eating fruits separately etc is a good idea often toning the digestive system is a good idea and the mb ideas of eating orderly is probably the best i have come across start with a soup if you are having it then wait a little then alternative a mouthful of grain with your other dishes - kinda working from most concentrated - eg root veg, beans etc to most expansive - greens, salad, tea - creates an orderly and balanced digestion and lets the stomach expand gently and peacefully Dissen wrote: I don't know why it has taken me quite this long to finally purchase that book, but it came in the mail this morning and I could not be more excited. As I'm thumbing through it, one topic did jump up at me. Food combining is something that I have come across time and time again, and I've usually dismissed it as I saw no real validity to it. Now I am seeing it in Pitchford's book, and that honestly surprised me. Does anybody here food combine? Or have any opinions on it? Either way, I can't wait to get through the rest of this book!

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Ilanit, Going to moms for dinner tomorrow and she will make the only dish she ever/always make me stir fry veggies with brown rice and she chucks a TON of tofu in which my dad and I pick out b/c we hate it. she's always saying how healthy it is and I'm always telling her it's like white bread and such. Can you give me a better answer in your brainy way please?

Guest guest Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 Definitely makes sense =) I came across the idea of eating from yang to yin in "Your Face Never Lies" and that makes more sense to me. I've started to do it a little and I can really tell a difference when I go from concentrated to expansive, so I need to continue to work on that!

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 This book changed my life! Isn't it wonderful? I think there is something to food combining, particularly the fruit part, but it seems to be more for people who are digestively challenged. For me, it has been another fun thing to experiment with to find my own personal balance.
