Sub-Acid fruits go best with other sub-acid fruits and sweet fruits.

Sweet fruits go best with other sweet fruits and sub-acid fruits.

Melons should always be consumed alone, on an empty stomach.

Proteins should never be consumed with carbohydrates.

Im just curious how you consume so much calories but dont gain weight?



[rawsynergytv]

@noelanimauigurl Raw fruits & vegetables metabolize differently than cooked food calories.

Whats a good amount of time to wait between food types?

[rawsynergytv]

@gringolazlo Between a watery, acid fruit to a more dense fruit like bananas or dates, I would wait at least 10 or 15 minutes. Between sweet fruits and fats (fats being 2nd), I would wait more like 20 to 30 minutes. It could be more or less depending on your physiology. The more you pay attention to your body, the more you'll know what the right timing is for you. :0)

Alicia you are so precious. I love all of your videos.

@mnktafrzna1 You're welcome! The banana, almond milk and berries don't make a great combo for sensitive stomachs. I would try just bananas, or, banana/date, banana/peach, banana/mango, banana/blueberry and be sure your bananas are ripe with spots. That's another important key to good digestion...ripe fruit. Keep it simple. With proper combining I think you'll be just fine. :0)

@healthyfitguy76 30 minutes is a good average, probably even quicker for acid fruits and melons.

Thank you so much!! Very very helpful!

[rawsynergytv]

@Consistency87 That's correct. You don't want to mix concentrated proteins/fats with carbs from fruit or grains.
