Certain concepts from food combining should carry over into your daily meals, but I see strict food combining as a nutritional therapy and something not necessary for everyone all the time.<\/p>\n<p>Food combining is a term used to describe an approach to eating where foods that require different digestive environments are eaten separately. Your body processes protein, carbohydrates and fats, as well as acidic foods and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/search\/?q=alkaline%20foods\">alkaline foods<\/a>, differently. In order to have truly efficient digestion, these different types of foods need to be eaten separately so that they don&#8217;t interfere with each other&#8217;s ideal digestive environment. Eating bad combinations of foods can lead to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/search\/?q=gas\">gas<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/search\/?q=upset%20stomach\">upset stomach<\/a>, heartburn or even diarrhea.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/03\/18\/why-a-food-combining-diet-makes-sense-six-dos-and-donts\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Why a Food Combining Diet Makes Sense: Six Dos and Don&#8217;ts<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/03\/18\/why-a-food-combining-diet-makes-sense-six-dos-and-donts\/\" rel=\"bookmark\" title=\"Permanent link to this entry\">Permalink<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/forward\/19402115\/\" title=\"Send this entry to a friend via email\">Email this<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thatsfit.ca\/2010\/03\/18\/why-a-food-combining-diet-makes-sense-six-dos-and-donts\/#comments\" title=\"View reader comments on this entry\">Comments<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Filed under: Health, Healthy Eating, Dear Healthy Foodie Dear Healthy Foodie,I&#8217;ve recently had an allergy test done and my diet now is free of the foods I&#8217;m allergic to but now I&#8217;m wondering how important is food combining?
