GOOD TO KNOW:
The majority of living beings synthesize their own vitamin C. Only a few, including humans, must take it in with their food. The human body's overwhelming need for vitamin C can only be naturally met by eating FRESH FRUIT. Although some vegetables also contain vitamin C, ITS PRIMARY DIETARY SOURCE IS FRUIT.
FRUIT & VEGGIES are a primary source of phytochemicals and antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals.
Sources: For Vitamin A eat dark-green, orange or yellow vegetables and fruit. For Vitamin C, red bell peppers and citrus fruit are recommended.
NEVER EAT FRUIT & VEGETABLES AT THE SAME MEAL – “If we would preserve the best health, we should avoid eating vegetables and fruit at the same meal. Have fruit at one meal, and vegetables at the next.” (CD 394-395)
WHY NOT?
“Fruit and vegetables taken at one meal produce acidity of the stomach; then impurity of the blood results, and the mind is not clear because the digestion is imperfect.” (CD112-113)
WHEN MIXING FRUIT WITH VEGETABLES, THE FOLLOWING HAPPENS WITHIN THE BODY:
- Blood made impure
- Fermentation
- Imperfect digestion (CD 113)
- Stomach acidity (CD 113)
- Stomach distressed by (CD 395)
