What is it? Does it work?

there are many article, books, etc...on food cobining. It helps ease digestion and unpleasant digestive symptoms...

The basics of food combining is as followed:

Eat proteins with fats

Eat carbs alone

Eat fruit on an empty stomach or 2 hrs after a meal

When switching from a Carb meal to a Protein/fat meal you must wait atleast 3 hrs after your last meal

Veggies can be eaten whenever and with each meal

A great book that goes into detail on these concepts and the concept of healthy digestion is called "Eating Alive"

I wouldn't call it food group combinging, but I almost never eat carbs alone (certainly not simple carbs) because it can give me a headache and make me feel nauseous. nothing mysterious about that, though - it's just a simple hypoglycemic response.

Yes, it's GREAT! Years before learning of being a Celiac, I started doing 'food combining', the 'Blood Type Diet', 'mini-meals', 'fruit on an empty stomach and alone', etc. All these things are likely the reason I'm still kickin'! Food combining isn't as critical now (being gluten-free), but it still helps, and I'll never remove it from my eating habits. It didn't seem to be an issue when my body was in "hyper-regeneration mode" (first 4 months), but now at 6 months, I notice I'm back to having more sensitivities (but less than before).

BTW, I first learned of this from 'Fit For Life' by Harvey Diamond. I had a book he mentions, but can't remember the name. I sent it to my sister, and she lost it.

Hi guys,

I started doing my own version of this 4 weeks ago. Been gluten-free 10 months now but was still having terrible stomach problems. FINALLY found a Homeopath who did a whole lot of blood tests, liver function and a couple of others.

They found Gilbert's Syndrome which explains the chronic nausea and why I wake up with yellow eyes every day. Also explains why I can't tolerate alcohol anymore. They also found Leaky Gut Syndrome.

I am eating carbs with salad/veg, protein with salad/veg, fruit in between on its own (2 hours either way). I am slowly starting to feel a LOT better. My energy levels are increasing too - slowly but I see a definite improvement after things being pretty much stagnant for the last 10 months.

Eating this way has stopped my gas and rumbling stomach, which was really embarrassing. It definitely works for me and its really easy to do - also helps a lot with my sugar cravings.

May well be worth a try!

Yvonne

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
