Food Combining for Health - The Bestseller That Has Changed Millions of Lives (Paperback, Reissue)

Three-quarters of a century ago an American doctor, William Hay, devised a dietary philosophy based on a simple principle: to digest proteins requires acids, to digest starches requires alkalis; therefore never mix the two. Despite orthodox medical antipathy, the Hay principle 'Don't mix foods that fight', under various names, has a strong and growing following. It claims to alleviate ailments ranging from allergies to migraine, hay fever, and indigestion, as well as promoting weight loss and general feelings of good health. As diets go this one has to be worth a try: you don't have to give up anything, only change when you eat it. This is a useful, simple guide to the theory and practice, with recipes. (Kirkus UK)

'Food Combining for Health' is the international best seller that has improved the health and vitality of thousands.

Also known as the Hay Diet, it is based on Dr William Howard Hay’s eating system devised nearly 100 years ago. Many have found that it has helped to alleviate a wide range of health problems including:
• arthritic pain
• digestive disorders
• ulcers
• obesity

Food combining is easy. Simply by keeping starch foods separate from protein foods in your daily diet, foods can be digested more easily, and your general health improved.

Doris Grant and Jean Joice have taken a fresh look at Dr Hay’s teachings. They offer practical advice and suggestions including a comprehensive recipe section to show you how easy it can be to begin food combining for life.
