FOOD COMBINING THEORY

Food combining is a method of eating that makes it easier for your body to digest food, thereby improving absorption of nutrients and freeing valuable body energy for healing and general use.  Of all human activity, digestion takes more energy and chemical activity than everything but exercise.  The more energy that can be saved during digestion, the more energy is available for healing and everyday use. 

Food combining is not only away of putting foods together for a high energy producing meal, but at timing system for allowing each meal to digest before eating again.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DIGESTIVE TIMING CHART

Fruit juice -- 15 minutes.

Vegetable juice -- 20 minutes.

Fruits -- 30 minutes.

Vegetables -- 45 minutes.

Grains and carbohydrates -- 60 minutes.

Well combined meal -- 90 minutes.

Poorly combined meal -- 240 minutes or longer, up to 8 hours!  Food to actually start to rot in the digestive tract releasing toxins (poison) into the bloodstream in poorly combined meals.

 

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Brain activity (thinking) also takes huge amounts of energy to produce the neural transmitters and hormones required for clear thought.  Neural transmitters and hormones are made of amino acids which are broken down from the foods we eat containing protein.  This process of breaking down protein into amino acids and then reconstructing the amino acids into other proteins called neural transmitters and hormones also requires a large amount of energy.  In addition, it requires that the food eaten is a balance of complete proteins.  If the protein balance is out of kilter, the body soon becomes out of balance and disease may result.

  

CONCLUSION

Healing is putting the body, mind and Soul back into the balance that was intended by the Creator.

Food combining is an important step in reestablishing balance within the body.  Initially, supplementation with vitamins, minerals, free-form amino acids, and enzymes may be required.  As the diet becomes primarily made up of fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, fresh vegetable juices, sprouts and well combined meals -- the need for supplementation will decrease.

Living foods -- foods that are still capable of growth when eaten -- are extremely important source of life force energy for the body.  Wheat grass juice, sprouts, and vegetable juices are among the most potent foods on our planet, and should become a mainstay in the diet.

With perseverance quality of life, vitality and freedom from disease can be achieved and maintained.
