Hi all, I have a little problem with my digestion and not sure if it is because of bad food combining or? A couple of years ago, I could eat dried nuts (without soaking) with dried fruits together and no problem. But now, as I progress more into raw eating, it seems that my digestion can no longer tolerate dried nuts with dried fruits. Is this because my digestion has improved or? Why am I more sensitive now than before? The other day I was eating some dried figs, and they give me terrible gas too. It seems my digestion is saying no to dried fruits even.
I guess my question is - the longer you eat raw, will your digestion become more and more sensitive? If so, is this a good thing?
I look at my family and friends - they can gob down large meals with beef, pork, fried stuff, bread, desserts plus coffee and have no problem. They even have a bit of fruits afterwards! Logically in comparison, whose digestion is more healthy? Mine feels like a "baby's stomach", so sensitive, actually preferring mono-food or simple food. Theirs feel like an "all you can eat gourmet buffet stomach".

camiheartsraw - No offense, as far as I know, sulfur free.
Rawaholic - Thanks. You have confirmed what my heart has been telling me too. It's really ironic though. I feel like I have a baby's digestion now. Babies cannot tolerate most "adult - SAD" food either. Does this mean new born babes have perfect digestions or just weak digestions? Am I growing stronger or weaker? In my heart, I know the answer is STRONGER!
"The downside... sometimes I just want to eat a trail mix I made with raw fruits and seeds." I hear you sister~
Lately I've been eating very clean... since I eat a lot of sweet fruits, I find myself staying away from nuts. Just to please my digestion! :) So far so good. But those recipe sites with those bars made of nuts, oils, dates... gotta stay away from~
Oh and the other day, I made a green smoothie from tahini, bananas and greens. Stomach was saying, "tahini with bananas, not a good idea for me~"
