Food Combinations That Are Poisonous

By Neha

When you consume certain foods, there is always a wise rule to maintain and follow to avoid any bad health issues that might occur from it.

There are certain foods that do not go with certain other foods. So, some food combinations can potentially harm your digestive system in particular.

Every person has a habit of mixing and eating certain foods together - like cheese with burger or milk with fruits. These foods can make you feel bloated and cause indigestion, thus making you feel uneasy.

These food combinations inhibit the digestive processes and can lead to stomach ache, nausea, fatigue and difficulty in eliminating the waste. But do you know that modern hygienists, physiologists and Ayurvedic experts slam these food combinations as being harmful?
