Isn't it ironic that inhabitants of the best-fed nation in the world can have so much trouble digesting their food? The problem is compounded when they not only mix it all up improperly, but many of us eat with almost no discrimination. To be more blunt, they eat junk. It boggles the mind in trying to fathom why intelligent human beings would attempt to subsist by eating JUNK, meaning all the processed, canned, and ultra-sweetened foods and drinks that are only available in our grocery stores because you buy them. People mix these in with everything else.
Junk-Food Consequences
There are consequences for eating junk foods; it affects behavior and thought processes, and we are the losers.
Somewhere I read, "The best way to lengthen your life is to avoid shortening it!" If you will refrain from overeating and combine your foods correctly as indicated below (an excerpt from Pickering 's THE FOOD COMBINING GUIDE), YOU SHOULD NEVER AGAIN HAVE A PROBLEM WITH WEIGHT CONTROL OR EXPERIENCE THAT BLOATED FEELING. Constipation will be eliminated, except for that which comes from eating too fast (not chewing food well enough), drinking with meals, or mismanaged stress (emotions), and the effects of the stress will be less with proper food combining. Your odds for avoiding illness will be greatly improved. Years will be added to your life, and, even more importantly, life will be added to your years.
People don't die - they kill themselves
Conversely, old age doesn't cause illness. By simply respecting our biological limitations and eating foods incompatible with the body's digestive chemistry, we learn that being healthy can be easy. The real challenge then is spreading the word that it's not necessary to be sick.
Remember, one of life's laws is replenishment. If we do not eat, we die. Just as surely, if we don't combine foods properly and eat the kinds of foods which will nourish our bodies, we will not only die prematurely, but we will be inconvenienced by suffering along the way.

I eat very slowly ( probably because I talk sooooo much) - that way when everyone else is done - I am done. Makes for lots of doggy bags when eating out!
