Mingle Your Way To Food Combining

Learning what foods are best when mingled! What an amazing way to start your day!

You’re digestive system will thank you for it!

Food combining helps people who suffer from:

  • Digestion
  • Gas
  • Bloating
  • Stomach pain
  • Allergies
  • Acid reflex
  • Chronic fatigue

Food combining is learning to eat as simple as possible.

The less your stomach has to work digesting, the less it needs to work on breaking down your meal.

In-digestive foods linger in your digestive tract creating a toxic environment.

There are 2 groups to remember: Concentrated & Non-Concentrated.

Fruits and non-starch foods are non-concentrated.

Everything else is starches/proteins are concentrated.

  • Don’t mix concentrated starches (grains, potatoes, parsnip, peas and corn), with protein (meat, fish, egg, dairy).
  • Don’t mix a large amounts of fats (butter, cream, oil) with protein.
  • Oil can be mingled with vegetable & protein.
  • Fruit is best on an empty stomach or alone. Fruit loves to be mingled with vegetables.
  • Non-Concentrated veggies are neutral and can befriend anything!
  • Never mix 2 different types of animal protein together.
  • Animal proteins are the toughest to breakdown and digest.

So next time you order the hungry man’s breakfast with 3 types of animal protein:

STOP and THINK: Only 1 meat on your plate!

Starchy vegetables are potatoes, corn, peas, broccoli, bell peppers, and kale.

Non starchy vegetables are spinach, carrots, asparagus and beans.

Watch out for Melons, they don’t mix with any other fruit!!

Here are some simple to follow recipes to help you’re digestive system get a brake.

Breakfast: 3 egg omelet with spinach and tomatoes.

If your’re VEGAN you can have oatmeal with blackberries, raspberries, almond milk and almonds.

Lunch: Spinach salad with shrimp, avocado, tomato, cucumber, cilantro, lemon and olive oil.

VEGAN: Cauliflower, rice with green onions and mushrooms.

Dinner: Ginger carrot soup with shredded chicken.

VEGAN: Tofu stir fry with peppers, carrots, zucchini and ginger.

Snack: Piece of dark chocolate (dairy free) mixed with nuts and a cup of herbal tea. (My favourite Basil and Lemon Grass tea).
