Certain foods play well with others, while others lose strength in pairs.

thanks for this site. I don't eat any foods have monosodium glutamate and partially-hydrogenated oil.

great info thanks.

Hey, Cas! How could I have missed this post by you. I really like this article a lot. I thought it was going to be the only 80's food combining method but this is really great.

Thanks!

MuchMore's ass and my spit, a perfect pair me thinks.

I'll have a Rum and Diet Coke, please, lol

I had one guy tell me that down there I taste like sweet cream butter.

I know!:
'DON'T mix alcohol and diet soda

Yes, you'll reduce calories by asking for diet soda in your rum and Coke, but you might get drunk faster. In one recent study, it took just 21 minutes for half a diet cocktail to leave the stomach and reach the small intestine, where most alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream, while the same amount of a non-diet concoction took 36 minutes.'

If I'm on a tight schedule and want to get drunk, this is info is priceless!

Thanks Caslon

Too bad they only list about 3 examples of the foods that mix well together.

It's time for them to make an exhaustive book on all the possibilities.

This is such a run of the mill.. we need a health article right now kind of article....

Sigh. While there may be some truth to all of this, trusting these columns with nutrition is the RJ equivalent of letting Cosmo pick the right type of guy for you to date based on a Cosmo Quiz.

I just caught a muscle magazine with an article bullshitting its way through about acidic foods and alkaline foods where the article was going well until they hit the right paragraph and said: oh well you could eat oranges but they're acidic so they're no good in alkalizing your body -- better use supplements instead.

If they actually knew what they were talking about they would realize that oranges, lemons and other acidic foods while truly being acidic act as an alkaline balancing force in the body.

The article was talking about how proteins and their building blocks amino acids can make the body more acidic. I think they read a little too much into the name "amino acid". While it is probably true that all that breakdown of protein causes the body to go acidic, amino acid does not mean it is acidic in the hydrochloric acid sense. lol

Gosh these silly silly magazines written by knowitall meatheads and product pushing companies.

Sigh.

I read about acidic and alkaline foods a few years back. It didn't give examples for each but it talked about how most fast foods have an overall acidic profile. However I do vaguely remember reading how citrus fruits were ultimately more alkaline. It also stated that acidic foods are one of the primary reasons that we break down, get sick, etc.

I invested in a water filter that had a way of alkalized the water for improved health. I could test it with litmus paper and it was more alkaline. I can't say it dramatically improved my health but it at least gave me fresh tasting delicious water.

Wow, I mix or have mixed all the 'don't' foods.

Thanks for the site, you might have saved my life
