A Note on Food Combining:

Various foods require different digestive juices and enzymes, and require different lengths of time for digestion. So, for optimal digestion and assimilation, it is best when foods are consumed in simple and compatible combinations. These food combining charts are included as a helpful guide, but are not absolute, and are not intended to be a set of unbending rules. Sonic recipes in this book do violate ideal food combining guidelines, which is one reason we implemented the five-star rating system. For people on the Hallelujah Diet who are not fighting a serious illness, less than perfect combinations can be eaten on occasion.
