Acid – Alkaline Diet and Food Combining
First Principle For Healthy Slenderness

Acid Alkaline
• Muscles fatigue easily • Higher muscle output
• Vitamins & minerals not absorbed • Increased assimilation at cellar level
• Friendly bacterial in intestine die • Reduction of candida overgrowth
• Skin & hair loses tone, texture • Skin more elastic, youthful
• Weight gain • Weight loss
• Angry, violent, mental dullness • Increased mental alertness, higher IQ
Diet needs to Be Alkaline - to Be Energized

Our body is about 20% acidic and 80% alkaline.

How to create a more alkaline body:

•Eat 80% alkaline food, 20% acid by volume daily
•Eat lots of alkaline forming fruits and vegetables.
•Chew your food well. Saliva is alkaline and you can
produce 2 gallons a day!
•Drink 2- 3 litres of pure water per day.
•Live in the light of the day – we need sunlight.
Second Principle To Healthy Slenderness

Better Digestion with Food Combining
Principles of Food Combining

High Protein High Carbohydrate
= High Acid = High Enzyme
Fruit
= Fast Digestion
Food Combining of Proteins and Carbohydrates

Protein foods require a highly acidic environment for digestion this begins in the
stomach with hydrochloric acid.

Carbohydrates (starches, fruit and sugars) and fats require an alkaline environment
for digestion which begins in the mouth with the enzyme ptyalin.

When carbohydrates and proteins are combined; digestion is compromised . This
leads to indigestion, gas, bloating and poor assimilation of nutrients.
Do Not Combine!

How to eat proteins and carbohydrates:

•Eat carbohydrates with vegetables for maximum digestion.
•Eat protein with vegetables for maximum digestion.
•Eat only one protein type at a meal; each protein requires a specific digestive juice.
Food Combining of Fruit

Fruit digests quicker then all other foods.

•Melons pass through an empty stomach the quickest of any fruit.
•Fruit passes through an empty stomach very quickly.
•Fruit undergoes no digestion in the stomach, it digests in the
intestines.
•Carbohydrates and proteins can take hours to digest.
•If you eat fruit while the stomach is full of carbohydrates and proteins
the fruit must wait for those foods to leave the stomach.
•While the fruit is waiting it expands like yeast resulting in a gassy,
acidic stomach.
How to eat fruit:

•Eat fruit separately – make a meal of fruit only.
•Best eaten at breakfast.
•Eat melon alone, wait 30 minutes before eating something else.
•Best not to eat fruit between meals while other food is digesting in the
stomach.

.
Fats:

Fats digest slowly.

•Tend to combine poorly with fruits.
•Combine fairly well with complex carbohydrates
•Combine well with non-starchy vegetables.
