Guest guest Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 How does if follow that " it must be true " ? I used to mix fruit and protein all the time before I became diabetic and had to stop eating fruit, and I am also still alive. But that does not " prove " that the admonition not to mix fruit and protein is false.

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 And yet I've heard that fruit should be eaten with something high fat to slow down the rate of sugar absorption and avoid blood sugar spikes. see here: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal13.php#a23 --- On Sun, 23/11/08, drmoratto <drmoratto wrote: > drmoratto <drmoratto > << >> Re: Wise Up and Stop Eating Your Muscles for Fuel > > Received: Sunday, 23 November, 2008, 12:36 PM > There is a school of thought that says that fruit should be > eaten alone > because it passes faster than everything else and when > eaten with other > stuff it stays in the stomach and rot.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I have heard of that. I have even known some who preactice it. But I consider it bunk pseudo-science.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 As a practitioner of this " pseudo-science " (actually a form of prudent food combining), I can tell you for a fact that there is something to the idea. Yes, as fruit does break down so quickly, it can ferment while other foods like proteins are still digesting. In our family, it is a surefire way to cause gas and other unpleasant sensations. Complete proteins such as legumes are another matter, and fresh fruit with nuts is a nice breakfast for us. Animal proteins are not (though we are not vegetarians.) It's really not that revolutionary a concept. --- On Mon, 11/24/08, Alobar <Alobar wrote: Alobar <Alobar Re: << >> Re: Wise Up and Stop Eating Your Muscles for Fuel Monday, November 24, 2008, 11:57 PM I have heard of that.
