in fact, I have been eating not amazingly this past week due to the stress from previously mentioned person’s condition. in short, I read about something called gastroparesis and I don’t know why none of my doctors ever suggested this but I really think I have this. I’s basically delayed emptying of the stomach. I’m trying to figure out ways to increase the speed of my digestion and I think food combining might really help here. But all the websites I’ve looked at just list off things like “no protein and carbs together” etc, but I’m a visual learner, I need examples that I can picture! I mean…I don’t know, I find it complicated. Like is it bad then to put coconut oil (fat) in my smoothie (fruit/carb)? Is there a good book I can get that really goes in depth and explains it better?? I’m sick of food basically rotting in my stomach! Thanks.

Hi, I have been using food combining rules for about 3 years now. I have been following a table created by one of the leading Italian naturopath (also a family friend) and author. Unfortunately his books are not translated in English. I have this table in my kitchen and I have been thinking to translate it myself to give to other RAW members as I think there is a lack of knowledge in North America about food combining. I have tried to google the subject myself but all I found are articles which say don’t mix this with that etc…and are very vague. The table I have is really detailed as it divides food in 14 families and for each family (groups) indicates clearly what can/cannot/and could be tolerated as combination.
