What is Food Combining?
Food combining has been successfully implemented in Europe for fat loss and weight control for many years.
It is based upon sound scientific principles and has proven to be both highly effective for weight control and easy to follow.
It requires the separation of protein from starch.
When a starch and a protein are eaten together, it can take the body six hours or more to digest.
It means your body must work overtime to break down the foods you have eaten instead of using this metabolic energy to burn off your fatty deposits.
A well combined meal will take half the time to digest:
A non-starchy vegetable meal (a big salad) takes about two hours to digest. Meals composed simply of fruit can take less than thirty minutes.
Fruits should never be eaten with either protein or starch.
Fruits with either protein or starch start to ferment in the stomach.
When eaten at the appropriate time (20 minutes before or 30 minutes after protein or starch) fruits can provide high levels of energy due to enzymes present in them. Fruits are our best natural source of potassium.
The good news is...
You can eat a full (satisfying) meal as long as you combine your foods properly (meat with salad and low-carbohydrate vegetables or pasta with salad and any vegetable(s) you wish) No longer do you have to count calories to lose weight.
As fantastic as this sounds it does not mean that you can overeat and still lose weight.
