Howdy,
I was just reviewing a series of slides Art De Vany used in a
presentation for UCI Forum Fitness, and noticed a point under Nutrition
Hints written "Less food mixing", and I've also heard from others
(admittedly less credible) that combining certain foods at a meal is a
bad idea. Was hoping to hear some other paleo people's thoughts on the
subject.
I've written here before that since going paleo my meals are very
similar in makeup in that they almost always consist of a serving of
meat/seafood, green veggies, piece of fruit, handful of nuts, and some
sort of oil (olive/coconut etc.). I try to get in as many calories as
possible at a meal because I'm very active and also don't like to eat
much in the evenings. So I tend to grab everything at mealtimes and
fill myself as much as possible. But when I think of this in a true
paleo context, it may not be a natural eating pattern, since it is
unlikely to have everything available at one time. I'm thinking it may
be better instead of having say 3 meals with everything listed above, to
for example split it up and eat fruit at one meal without nuts, and then
nuts at the next meal without fruit... has anyone experimented with
food combinations that has noticed any effects? I often feel quite
bloated after meals and thought this might have something to do with it.
Its hard to search for reliable info on the subject, I end up coming
across Kevin Trudeau type junk science that I can't rely on.
