I’m trying to improve my breakfest generally, and I heard that these are some of the best of what’s already popular to eat for health. How should these be ate, together or separate?

    Preference is one thing but what does that have to do with being healthy? Not trying to make fun of it, just trying to understand the idea behind it.

      Poor food combinations can give you gas/bloating, indigestion, fatigue. Good food combinations work together and can help with the uptake of certain nutrients.

        I’ve never thought about that and just now read about it a little more. Interesting. Would make my day to day life too complicated if I would try to consider that into my meal planning as well though.

        Edit: Reading more into it, it seems bogus.

          It doesn’t have to be strict. Some people make too big of a deal out of it. Most of us are used to eating in certain combinations anyways and our bodies have adjusted. One small example that you’ve probably heard, turmeric’s beneficial components are more bioavailable when eaten with black pepper. The body digests foods in varying ideal circumstances depending on what it is. Ultimately, you’ll probably be just fine eating a varied diet, but there are combinations that are better or worse for nutrient uptake, gastric comfort, blood sugar spikes, etc.
