Have you heard that meat and potatoes or fish and rice together is a deadly combination? Authors of 'Food Combining' diet believe that human stomachs cannot digest any number of different foods at the same time. Despite it’s popularity, 'Food Combining' diet concept holds no truth! Experts can’t help but laugh every time a self proclaimed expert writes a book or article about the body’s inability to process combined foods. Despite the fact that people have existed on earth for many years and every population and culture eats and has eaten mixed diets, attention seekers and money grabbers continue to try to pull the wool over the eyes of those in need of a weight loss strategy.

Your body is unable to detect the components of the food you eat upon ingestion. Signals are not sent to your brain, alerting the rest of the body of "APPLE", "TWINKIE", "FISH" or "BAGEL". Instead, the breakdown of food begins as soon as you begin eating it and continues through the stomach and then small intestine. Enzymes are secreted throughout the process that breakdown the food you eat so that it can be absorbed and its nutrients utilized. Protein, fat and carbohydrate are all subject to the same process. Sound nutritional advice includes eating a diet low in fat, high in vitamin and minerals and reducing total caloric intake. Be wary of any diet or weight loss scheme that doesn’t use this as it’s premise.
