Food Combining - The Science Of Eating
For optimal digestion and to prevent bloating after consuming meals, combining foods in ideal combinations will help, along with NOT consuming any fluids with your meals. A good rule of thumb is to have at least 60% vegetables (steamed is how most people do best) and either 40% protein (i.e. turkey, fish, eggs, etc.) OR 40% complex carbohydrate (i.e. quinoa, GF oatmeal, brown rice, lentils, etc. on the management phase of the supercharged diet) at each meal but NEVER combining your proteins or carbohydrates at the same meal.
Most people do better with more protein rich meals than carbohydrate meals. Probiotic and digestive enzyme supplementation and/or cultured vegetables with meals will also help those who suffer from digestive imbalances. Daily use of a high quality colostrum supplement is a great option for quick protein and to help repair digestive imbalances.
