Author	Topic: Orange Juice after eggs?
Frevor 11-11-2002 12:22 AM	I know you say wait 3 hours to eat fruit after eggs. Would this also entail orange juice, or avocados? Would this mean (on this diet), don't eat or drink anything (except water) after you eat eggs?

When you digest protein rich foods, your stomach needs to be left alone with itīs low PH in the stomach and all the enzymes that digests the protein. If you drink you will dillute the digestive "fluids" so the body needs to readjust and excrete more acid and more ezymes. Well.... something like that :-) /Peter

After the fresh raw egg yolks or fresh raw fish, the blood-fat level is okay, but you may miss out on the glucose, and that is where the OJ comes in handy. I always drink OJ after egg yolks or fish, because the fat and sugar (and protein) combined makes me feel so great; it feels so 'complete'. The OJ lifts me up after the fat has made me slow, or even energy-less. RRM
