"Fit for Life" Theory

Please note that the author of this site supports this theory in no way.
The breakdown of this book is given here only for purposes of education and critical thinking.
 

"Fit for Life" Theory

The authors are believers in a type of "food combining" whose theory states that when foods are combined inappropriately, they become "rotten" and cannot be absorbed from the intestinal tract.

This toxifies the body and makes people fat.
- If something CANNOT be absorbed by the body, how can it make the body fat?

People gain weight not because of overeating and too little exercise, but because they wrongly combine proteins with starches.

You should never combine a carb and a protein as they "fight" in the stomach and then become toxic.

Our digestive tracts cannot assimilate more than one of these "concentrated foods" at a time, since the enzymes that digest protein nullify the enzymes that digest carbohydrates, and vice versa.

Eggs rot in the body

Dairy products and refined sugar are banned and although fruit is good, it must not be consumed at the end of the meal.

Are some food combinations more easily digested than others (Fit for Life theory)?
