I never heard of Food Combining or the Hay Diet .. so I did what I usually do - I wiki'd it.

The latter has the following chart:



This says that Carbs should NOT be eaten with Concentrated Protiens nor with Acidic fruits.

What I found very interesting about what I read was that

(a) it makes sense about the enzymes neutralizing one another.
(b) On my atkins-ish diet, I've realized that if I eat my Greek Salad (Lots of Lemon, Vinegar) at lunch - all by itself .. my weight will tend to drop .. as opposed to eating chicken breast with my salad - my weight tends to stall...

I think this is an interesting idea - and from what I've read thus far it doesn't say you HAVE to eat carbs .. so I don't see any reason why I can't try this and Atkins together - see its effects.

In the original post I see there was some mention about wait times between eating certain foods .. where would I find more information on this?
