THE FOOD COMBINING BIBLE  THE FOOD COMBINING BIBLE Ref: RFD901

Jan & Inge Dries

Food Combining is an excellent way to improve digestion and achieve your ideal weight. Food Combining looks at the five different food groups - protein, starch, sugar, fat and acid and shows you how to create meals which benefit your health and well-being rather than being detrimental. Although food is composed of a number of substances," say authors Inge and Jan Dries. "Only five main nutrients are recognized in food combining. The dominant nutrient out of the five in each food governs the whole digestive process: food combining shows you how to be sure that there is only one dominant nutrient in the whole meal. This avoids nutrients fighting one another, which upsets the digestive process, triggering problems such as indigestion or worse." With plenty of recipes, The Food Combining Bible is an excellent guide to the art of food combining.
