Tilden Suggestions for Food Combinations
Dr. John Tilden was a late 19th century and early 20th century medical doctor who turned to Natural Hygiene to help his patients recover from a wide variety of diseases.
Today we'll look at the first five of Dr. Tilden's suggestions for food combinations:
1. Do not mix starches and protein foods in the same meal.
2. Take but one kind of starch at a meal.
3. Take but one kind of protein at a meal.
4. It is better not to mix starch, fruit, and milk. The triple combination is very hard on most people, especially those with impaired digestion. Milk and fruit make a good combination; also starch and fruit.
5. If we wish to combine ideally we will not take starch and milk in the same meal. Why? Because it is a protein and starch mixture. Raw milk is an ideal food within itself, but heating or pasteurizing kills the life or vitamin element.
