Wolfe's triangle

I wonder whether Wolfe's triangle should be a

triangle. I think the major weakness of the SAD lies in its

adoption of carbohydrate and fat. <br><br>You and I live

at opposite ends of the planet, myself at GMT +1 and

share 57 years of age but you clearly know more than I

on diet.<br><br>As I see it, fats should be

separated from carbs not just in the stomache but they

should also given separate time in the blood stream

especially when long term damage needs reversal.<br><br>I

suspect that " leafy green " can be eaten with either fruit

or fats but the fats and sugar ingested together are

a poison<br><br>Do I even hit a nerve in raising

this subject about which I feel strongly?

<br><br><br>I used sail in those great white liners of the P &

O to your isles and have happy memories of time

spent there.<br><br>regards<br><br>Peter Gardiner

Peter; <br>I don't know about mixing sugar and

fat, I know you have mentioned it before. I know its a

good way to get fat. I do it all the time I always put

a couple tablespoons of avocado in my banana,

papaya, smoothies in the morning. Tastes like a milk

shake. I guess I better do some research. where is

GMT+1? If its noon in Greenwich its one PM. in Europe.

Are you somewhere in Eu.? I live on the southern tip

of Hawaii on the big island, I can see South Point

from my house.<br><br>Doug

Doug,<br><br>Mixing sugar and fat, first caught

my attention on reading Dr. Robert Atkins " Diet

revolution " . The famed, and much despised by the AMA, " Low

Carb. Diet " . Dr. Atkins said on Larry King, I think,

that he is funding research into his diet - I wonder

what he has found so far. <br><br>The next jog came

with the notion that mixing fruit and veg. causes

flatulance which must be one of nature's ways of protesting

about eating habits. <br><br>Recently a French

philosipher told me that it was elementary that sugar and fat

should never be mixed. I am just trying to think of a

French recipe which does not mix the two. Thus I am now

actively separating the two but wonder just how far to

carry it.<br><br>If a natural diet of raw food passes

through us in 24-36 hours and our systems are refined by

nature to that routine then doubling the period by

pumping cooked meat laced with all the refinements of the

haute cuisine has to be an upset.<br><br>What do we

know of primates eating habits that might shed light

on this subject?<br><br>I write from Brussels where

I live but the thought of you on Hawaii brings to

mind lunchtime cocktails whist sailing away from Hilo

or Honolulu whilst prodding a cocktail stick into

selected pineapple with a a cube of Dutch cheese whilst

sipping German white wine and listening to strains of the

Hawaiian signature music. Unforgettable<br><br>Peter

The concept of mixing fats with sugars

(high-carb) is contrary to what I've read in most books

containing information on optimal food combining.<br><br>I

did note that it's recommended in Wolfe's traingle

from the point of view that the fat will slow down the

rate of absorption of the sugar, thereby preventing

big swings in blood sugar and insulin levels. This

concept seems to make sense.<br><br>I believe Wolfe also

acknowledged this was contrary to food combining principles,

but reasoned that once someone had been totally raw

for a period of time, that the strength of the

digestive system would strengthen with the result that

mixing fats and sugar would have no detrimental effects.

At least, that's my recollection of how he explained

it.<br><br>Food combining proponents like to point out that in

nature animals generally eat only one food item at a

time. For a carnivoire, this is because fresh kill only

comes about every so often. For herbivoire, it seems

reasonable to assume there are not always multiple food

sources available simultaneously, and so on. Obviously,

few if any animals would tend to eat

high-fat/high-protein items with high-carb items. Or so it would seem

to me.<br><br>I'd say the key to answering the

dilema would be to try out both methods on ones self,

and see which one produces the best digestion or

sense of well being.<br><br>Mallon
