Here are the basic rules in food, which should be followed.
In order to maintain health and feel vigorous, it is not enough to use quality products.
It is important to know which ones can be combined and which should always be eaten separately. Experts told about the most common mistakes in the mix of products that should be corrected immediately.
At first glance, there is nothing wrong in eating together products that are perfectly combined with each other. However, in the long run, you are increasingly troubling issues such as bloating and nausea, bad breath and dry skin, poor sleep and low energy levels. How to avoid it? Just give up on the simultaneous use of those products, which interact with each other, causing problems with digestion.
Cucumbers and tomatoes
Unfortunately, these two products very often used together, being the basis of most vegetable salads. But remember: they are absolutely not compatible. Cucumbers belong to the alkaline foods, and tomatoes — to acidic. They are differently absorbed by the body, and while the digested cucumbers, tomatoes begin to ferment, leading to bloating.
Omelette with ham and cheese
Another very typical combination is an omelette with ham or bacon, topped with grated cheese. Such a high concentration of protein from different foods will give you courage and strength, but only negatively affect the process of digestion of food. Per meal is enough to eat one serving of protein, so next time, preparing your own Breakfast, choose an omelet with vegetables.
Pasta with tomato sauce and cheese
We already talked about the fact that tomatoes are sour foods that are not recommended to be mixed with starchy carbs. So from pasta with tomato sauce should be abandoned. And if you also like to sprinkle cheese on top of pasta, it is a complex combination of causes that after eating you feel heaviness in the stomach, and fatigue. If you want the pasta benefit, combine it with roasted vegetables and pesto sauce.
Cheese sandwich
Continuing the conversation about cheese, we want to once again caution against its use in combination with a starch-containing products. These include not only pasta, what we talked about in the previous paragraph, but also bread. For the digestion of starch and protein contained in the cheese require different enzymes and if you eat a cheese sandwich, the body will first digest the protein and starch from the bread will begin to undergo fermentation and decay. Much better to add cheese in a light vegetable salads with lots of greenery.
Dry-cured ham with melon
Dry-cured ham with melon — known European dish that is traditionally served in Italy and Spain, is of no benefit to the body. According to the science of food, the melon, as you would any sweet fruit should be eaten separately from other products and in any case not to combine proteins and starches.
Fruit after a meal
If you want to avoid problems with digestion, I advise you not to eat fruit for dessert. The main food that contains proteins and fats, digested much longer than the fruit. It means that juicy Apple you ate for dessert, will remain in the stomach, waiting for the main course to digest, and will inevitably begin to ferment, causing bloating.
Milk with banana
Those who prefer Breakfast healthy and hearty smoothies, often preparing them on the basis of a banana, adding milk. However, from the point of view of Ayurveda, this combination invokes a sense of gravity and slows the reaction. If you are not ready to abandon that morning drink, then choose to cook very ripe bananas, and add spices for example nutmeg or cardamom. This will help to stimulate digestion and to avoid unpleasant consequences for the organism.
