abuchana Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I read somewhere on the internet (which is why I'm looking for further guidance) that avocado shouldn't be eaten with other high fat/high protein food due to the bodies digestion process. I've seen plenty of recipes that use both ingredients, but am just wondering what people feel is appropriate for a healthy fat ratio. Thanks!

Kirsteen Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Well I'm absolutely no expert but I know there's a lot of different views out there about food combining. Unfortunately a lot of them seem to contradict each other . All I can say is I, personally, frequently have chicken salad with avocado, black olives, lettuce, tomato etc. and virgin olive oil dressing, which is combining the avocado with protein and 2 other types of fat. I've never found any digestive problems with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan W Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Like Kirsteen, I often have avocado and black olives together. I don't find the food combining philosophy to hold much weight but others may feel differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melbournegirl Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I think the only food combining whole30 supports is fat with protein with veggies else it's not a real or sustainable meal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I was a bit curious about this, did some googling. All the articles I found were from raw food folks (who don't seem to like raw nuts and avocado together), so they're not following the meal template to start with. I mix different fats in single meals all the time. I love avocado with chicken and olive oil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melliemoo Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I eat avocado and olives almost every day together in salad, and it hasn't bothered me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
