It works!! Even if nutritionists keep saying that there is no science supporting this. This is the only way of eating that works for me. I'm 50 and my stomach is flatter than 20 years ago. No more fatigue or bloating after eating. And my blood sugar roller coasters are also a thing of the past. I had terrible blood sugar spikes for many hours e.g. if I combined cheese and fruit. And no doctor knew why. Thank you for this helpful summary.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It worked miracles for me, too! It’s frustrating when there’s no science to support something 😅 but you can’t argue with results ☺️
Absolutely 🖐🏿 one month ...the yellow in my eyes disappeared...and my enduranve & steady blood sugar was a Gift....i also had 3 bowel movements💥💥💥💥💥💥 Fit for life changed my life
I tried food combining, kept it up for a few weeks found it hard going but one thing you definitely notice is your stomach becomes much calmer very quickly and you suffer much less from gas and bloating.
Seasonal combination helps applying the above. When eating from same season only you d never mix fast digestive food ex. tomatos, cuccambers high water content summer food with slow digestive dry - winter food. High sugar food like bananas summer food with high fatty winter food. Thank you for so important information!! Georgios from Greece.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. This makes so much sense! I remember reading an article years ago about food combining and it was a man by the name of Dr. Hay who, in the 1920's, spoke of this way of eating foods that combine well together so as to not interrupt or disturb the natural way of digestion. I tried it, and went from 130 pounds to 120 pounds but I felt great! I never could gain more than 135 pounds my whole life and I am five foot seven inches tall. I stopped eating this way because I "fell off the wagon" so to speak, thought I was "cured", and wanted to gain more weight and the digestive issues came back. I realized later that this is not a cure, but a darn good prevention method. I decided I can live with looking a little skinnier if it means no digestive issues! Thanks again for your inspiration. You look amazingly healthy by the way!
Thanks for sharing your experience! I'm so glad food combining helps you to feel better :) a shame about your weight though... perhaps there is something else going on with that? A malabsorption issue? Have you had an iridology session to see what's going on there? Just a suggestion 🙂 thanks again x
This was excellent I can't believe it's taken me 33 years of life to even realise about proper food combinations , makes so much sense now when I think about it , thanks your an angel 👼
you are so beautiful knowledgeable and kind. I am trying to transition to raw after being 4 months cooked vegan . I am battling food addiction and binge eating disorder but I dedicated to becoming the happiest and healthiest I can be Thank you thank you for being so inspirational. Love you.
Casarah thank you so much for your heartfelt comment 😌 I'm so happy my videos inspire you to become the healthiest version of yourself. Keep on this amazing path 🙏🏻💜
Thank you so much! I’ve been vegan for almost 5 years but I’m not the healthiest vegan. I am going to really give this a go. Cut out the breads and white pastas as well. Xo much love to you! Thanks for the daily food guide too!
Hey, first thing I'd like to say is i hope ur doing fine, im a little bit late for the comment.second thing is, can u explain why would u cut out the breads? so i can get the information send u love all
Dear Olivia, much thanks for speaking so kindly & clearly & is it okay to ask you the following questions here that I am really struggling with:1. Is it okay to eat beef and sardines and some green vegetables in one meal, or is eating these two particular different proteins bad to eat in one meal? 2. How long does it take oatmeal to digest? How long should a person wait after eating oatmeal before eating a new different meal? 3. Is it okay to eat avocado with fried vegetables such as, fried sweet potatoes, cauliflower, & zucchini? 4. With what is it ok to eat fried plantain chips? Is it okay to eat such chips with hummus or eggplant dip for example?
Hi :) thanks for your questions and I'm so glad you enjoyed this video! I have answered your questions to the best of my ability. I hope it helps. 1. It is best to eat one animal protein at a time, but it is okay to eat beef and sardines together if you choose. Doing this once in a while will be fine. Green vegetables can definitely be added to that meal too. 2. I believe oatmeal takes around 2 hours to digest. 3. It is okay to eat avocado with fried vegetables. 4. Plantain chips can be eaten with hummus or eggplant dip. Just be careful about the additives in the dips if they are not homemade.
I was once only on fresh juices(apple, oranges,celery,grapefruit) like for a month. It was great time. I have been slept for 4-5 hours and still have enough power and energy to ran a marathon. Sadly but society and my job not contributed to my lifestyle. So now i am vegan. But try my best to Raw Vegan - it's incredible feeling :) By the way Hi From Moscow adherent :D
RazumChannel hi 😃👋🏻 wow that juice fast must've been incredible!!! Maybe it's time for another one to get you back on track ☺️ although it sounds like you're doing amazing anyhow.
holy f....lol i've been mixing sweet fruits with tbs of flax seed oil every morning and was wondering why after 2 weeks i got bloated and heartburn after eating proteins.....ty so much
I love oats most mornings with milk and water, what fruit would be best, I usually love bananas, peanut butter sometimes and honey drizzled but leaves me bloated for hours, any suggestions, thank you beautiful
Sapphireblue777 I would suggest removing the peanut butter, and see how you feel with just the fruit and oats 😊 Do this for a few days and let me know.
@@OliviaBudgen thank you so much for replying, I will let you know as I don't have oats every morning, will maybe have it tomorrow morning, ... Thank you again sweetheart
Thank you. After looking at this it is finally making little bit more sense. I still dont know what goes into some sub-groups. Will need to write all the foods I eat and then see what goes where....question..how about rice or almond milk or soya milk? can I have that with granola? And still trying to figure out what I can have with cheese. Thank you
Hariraj Kaur I'm glad it's beginning to make more sense. It can be a little tricky at the start! Most people are fine having nut milks with granola 🙂 you'll have to see how you feel with the soy milk and granola as that is more of a protein than a fat. Perhaps you could try cutting out cheese altogether 😉🙊 anyway... don't stress too much over food combining, experiment, and see how you feel with different food combinations!
Great video! Dry fruit like bananas and dried fruit combine really good with nuts and seeds, the fruit help the digestion of the nut/seed, and not mix it with Water (like smoothies), I think Water rich foods doesnt combine with nuts/seeds, it should be eaten in a dry state. And for me, I cant digest bananas so good without almonds or dried seeds together with it!
Rawveganse thanks gorgeous girl! Oh wow well I haven't heard that before 🤔 I've always thought those raw balls with dried fruit, nuts and seeds are not good, along with those raw cakes etc. Interesting! As long as it's working for you then that's so good 💚
Olivia Budgen Prof. Spira whrote in his book thats its best to not eat nuts at all in summertime and in wintertime if you eat them, to have a chance to digest them properly, he says that you should always eat them with dried fruit or honey, that have really worked for me! Why people say that you shouldnt combine dried fruits with nuts is probably because its easy to overeat on it, and overeating is not a good thing and will cause indigestion, so people that get indigestion from it probably think that its because of the combination, but mostly of the time I think its because they ate to much! Also, water rich fruits never combine with nuts, that will cause indigestion, just eat dried fruits with it :)
I've recently have problems with bloating, constipation and just round all digestion..I'm going to look more of what I put in my mouth and how my body reacts. hope it works .😰😰😩
Got a question: If I was to have Bulletproof coffee after having a bowl of fruit would that be a problem? The coffee has grass fed butter in it, along with MCT oil... Just curious what your thoughts are on this. Thanks for the great video! 💥👏💥
It definitely helps with digestion but it gave me bad brain fog and I felt like crap, so I gave it up. However I took some good points from it, so it wasn't a complete loss.
Bob Schmob a lot of people are fine combining starches together. I wouldn't go too crazy, but combining rice with another starch like beans might be okay. Try it out for yourself 😊
Hi, thanks for all the info. I've heard that nuts or beans combined with whole grains make a complete protein. As a vegan this is important for me but I've also heard to the contrary. Any help with this would be much appreciated. Thanks
Thanks so much for your info and inspiration. I have received a subscription email but still haven't found any food combining cheat sheet. Where do I find this?
I just found your channel. I have IBS D and struggle with trying to eat without getting sick. I like watermelon but it seems to really bother my digestion. I don't know how to get to a healthy gut and digestion where I don't get sick after I eat.
SuperCandyjunkie I hope your TH-cam name doesn't represent what you like to eat? 😉 Otherwise that may be an issue. I'd recommend transitioning over to a fresh whole food plant based diet, if you haven't already. Make sure to definitely follow these food combining guidelines 100% particularly because you have digestive issues. Also remember that your digestion may be very up and down for a couple of months after eating healthier, then it will balance out 😌
Candy is what I used to always eat because it seemed to be the only thing that didn't make me sick. Not chocolate just other types of candy. I am eating mostly whole foods now. No meat, eggs, dairy or soy. I do slip up and eat pizza once in a while. I have wanted to go raw but a lot of raw veggies and fruits don't agree with my digestion. Also, I have not found a dressing I really like for salads. Growing up lettuce always made me sick as well. Thank you for taking time to respond.
@@OliviaBudgen today is day 3! Woohoo! Plan is amazing! I've put together all my years of knowledge and you sealed the concept! In the 80's ( lol) there was a book called "Fit for Life". I loved the concept, however it is antiquated. So this is what we're doing, a small bowl fruit Wait at least 30 minutes, I lovely protein breakfast 2 eggs some bacon.( we are not strictly plant based) wait 4hrs. Next meal is strictly grains the next me up I strictly grains. After 2 hours, back to protein. We are bodybuilding and trying to lose weight not uneasy combination. I came up with the amount of calories And protein and made a plan based on that balance. Thank you again for sharing so detailed and I never knew we had 3 fruit🤭😁
Can i eat dried fruits as a snack? And do they go well with nuts? Oh another question: Are dairy products really fats? I heard that they are proteins. Sry if i made any mistakes, i'm german :)
Yes dairy can be confusing with food combining... I'd put it in the fat category though. Dried fruits have been known to combine well with nuts. I'd give it a go and see how you feel.
Hi olivia! I bought your ebook and i love the salad dressings, but i am wondering how that works with food combining. I see for example a dressing with dates but can i combine that dressing with leavygreens and cucumber/tomatoes etc?
fffocus thanks so much for buying my ebook 🙏🏻I truly hope you enjoy the recipes. I know food combining seems a little confusing sometimes... you can actually be flexible when things are blended because they are predigested. So the blended dressings are fine with greens and veggies 😊 although again - listen to your body and if you feel any discomfort, tune in ✨
Olivia Budgen Thank you so much! This was something i was wondering for a long time but i couldn't really find any information about it online. Thanks!! 😘
Hello, I am vegan and would make a protein smoothie with avocado, papaya and tsps of each: Flaxseed, chia seed, amaranth, pumpkin seed, hemp seed, sesame seed, maca, turmeric, spirulina and cocoa powder. Is that a wrong combination? If yes, then how can I combine nuts and seeds in my smoothie? Recipe?
I love your channel and am looking to do something similar with my own uniqueness of course. I wanted to know if you eatlentils in your raw vegan life-style? Am asking because I eat 98% Raw but am not sure about lentils. Wish you growth on your journey!
Thx for the reply! I wasn't clear enough. Is cooking lentils considered Raw? If not, I will learn how to sprout as I am aiming for 100% Raw! Thx a lot and wish you a great day!
Rheeko / Vegan WoWGamer&Training raw foods are foods which haven't been cooked. So no, cooked lentils aren't raw. Definitely consider sprouting them - they are twice as healthy and nutritious when they are sprouted too 😊
Thank you for this video. One of the things that I have often enjoy eating was a fruit salad with bananas, berries, and an avocado with lemon juice squeezed on top with a little salt on the avocado. It's really delicious but I didn't know that the avocado was no no.
Jennifer Levine as I mentioned ☺️ it’s totally okay to do once in a while... and if you feel fine after eating it, perhaps your body responds and deals well with that combination 😃 listen to your body 🙏🏻 xxxx
Hello Olivia! You're so beautiful and kind. I LOVE your videos! Keep up the good work. You're amazing. And you look sooo young! 17 at most. I'm fruitarian :) May all your dreams come true xx
Western nutrition is confusing and is 🤪🤪 supporting the sickcare system 💥absolutely i was able to get my friend to eat fruit Alone & in 2 weeks he was grateful & shocked 💥💥. ..proper combining changed my life in 3 weeks 🫡🫡god bless you ⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️.
Sleepy Claus eating meat + non-starchy vegetables is fine 😊 I’m not sure what you mean by eating acid with it though? What are you eating for dessert afterwards?
@@OliviaBudgen Oh yes! By acid I mean vinegar and fruits acids like tomatoes since I use them a lot in my salads. And mostly my desserts are carbs like ice cream or fruits
Sleepy Claus people are generally fine eating acid foods like tomatoes and vinegar with salad and meat etc. You should definitely not eat fruit after a meal though. That will cause severe gas, bloating and fermentation. If you’re talking about ice cream made from cows milk, that’s dairy and in the category of fats. I don’t suggest eating that at all. Go for a coconut milk ice cream instead.
The combo that has so much conflicting advice is fat and carbs or fat and protein. You recommend fat and carbs but other sources say that exasperpates insulin spike and that fats and protein do not and therefore are a better combo
MaryJo Villar you can definitely pop almond butter into a smoothie if you'd like 😊 I'd just recommend combining it with suitable ingredients e.g. Berries, mangoes, papaya etc. (sub acid and acid fruits) as opposed to sweet fruits.
Can we combine acidic fruits like orange, lime, tomato with starchy proteins like beans and legumes. Can we combine nuts and seeds with beans or legumes or with fats
It works!! Even if nutritionists keep saying that there is no science supporting this. This is the only way of eating that works for me. I'm 50 and my stomach is flatter than 20 years ago. No more fatigue or bloating after eating. And my blood sugar roller coasters are also a thing of the past. I had terrible blood sugar spikes for many hours e.g. if I combined cheese and fruit.

Thank you for this video. One of the things that I have often enjoy eating was a fruit salad with bananas, berries, and an avocado with lemon juice squeezed on top with a little salt on the avocado. It's really delicious but I didn't know that the avocado was no no.
Jennifer Levine as I mentioned ☺️ it’s totally okay to do once in a while... and if you feel fine after eating it, perhaps your body responds and deals well with that combination 😃 listen to your body 🙏🏻 xxxx
thank you!
MEEZY you're welcome!
Can I eat Sauerkraut / Kimchi with Meat?
I think that’s fine yes 🙂
Oh great!
I was thinking that the fermented veggies are too Acidic for combining with proteins 😉
Thank You for Helping 🌷
i made a playlist for food combining
I did it for a couple of months but than I stopped because I lost too much weight

Western nutrition is confusing and is 🤪🤪 supporting the sickcare system 💥absolutely i was able to get my friend to eat fruit Alone & in 2 weeks he was grateful & shocked 💥💥.
..proper combining changed my life in 3 weeks 🫡🫡god bless you ⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️.
@@georgeduncan8946 hehe yeah we are back to front, hey? 🤪 So glad you noticed positive benefits of food combining, too!
Do these guidelines apply to soups ?
Yes, although like smoothies, you may find you can be less restrictive ☺️
Is red meat or eggs + Non-starchy veggies + Acid okay? I feel full with it but I bloat If I eat a dessert after
Sleepy Claus eating meat + non-starchy vegetables is fine 😊 I’m not sure what you mean by eating acid with it though? What are you eating for dessert afterwards?
@@OliviaBudgen Oh yes! By acid I mean vinegar and fruits acids like tomatoes since I use them a lot in my salads. And mostly my desserts are carbs like ice cream or fruits
Sleepy Claus people are generally fine eating acid foods like tomatoes and vinegar with salad and meat etc. You should definitely not eat fruit after a meal though. That will cause severe gas, bloating and fermentation. If you’re talking about ice cream made from cows milk, that’s dairy and in the category of fats. I don’t suggest eating that at all. Go for a coconut milk ice cream instead.
What category would cauliflower be in? Starches?
Non-starchy vegetables.
The combo that has so much conflicting advice is fat and carbs or fat and protein. You recommend fat and carbs but other sources say that exasperpates insulin spike and that fats and protein do not and therefore are a better combo
Great video!
Thank you so much ✨💜
It’s good combination yoghurt and nuts?
So informative, thank you! X

That doesn't seem like enough calories?? Your suggested food list. Can you give measurements?
Eat as much as you need to feel full :) everyone needs a different amount of food each day.

Thank you 😊🙏🏻
so almond butter in fruit smoothies is a no?
MaryJo Villar you can definitely pop almond butter into a smoothie if you'd like 😊 I'd just recommend combining it with suitable ingredients e.g. Berries, mangoes, papaya etc. (sub acid and acid fruits) as opposed to sweet fruits.
so protein and fat are good recommended ? i thought it was ok to combined them
So what category do herbs fall in?
Greens :)
Thanks for the info Liv. Can I call you Liv? Imma call you Liv 😁
You’re welcome 🤗 and yes, you can call me “Liv” 😄 that is my nickname 🙂

Can we combine acidic fruits like orange, lime, tomato with starchy proteins like beans and legumes.
Can we combine nuts and seeds with beans or legumes or with fats
Neetu Tomar these are usually dependent upon the unique person. These combinations aren’t the worst, so just give them a go and see how you feel 🙂
You look and sound vegan, am I right ? First time coming across this channel.
Good morning

Drrr Ruh Matically. Sorry I couldn’t help it.

no food digests better in an alkaline environment because your stomach is always acidic, that’s why it’s called stomach acid
