I strongly do not recommend drinking water, soft drinks, juices or alcohol during a meal since it adds a touch of orderliness to one's eating habits that way.
Just write down the basics of the separate nutrition program and get to stick to them for real! Make your own list of forbidden and permitted food combinations and try to remember them! Plan ahead your eating regimen for each day and dose properly (as we will think of foods as a medicine)
Even if you are not a programmer or an IT specialist, you can still "program" your consciousness, if you are willing to. As old as our habits are, it is quite hard to ditch them since we have been following them for many years; plus, we have got used to how some foods taste and even considered them healthy.
Ferments
Ferments are bio catalysts, breaking down food as each of them is deeply specialized in assimilating a certain type of products. For instance, those ferments, responsible for breaking down sugars, have nothing to do with the assimilation of either starch or proteins. Ferments extract nutrients, being essential for the human body.
Bear in mind that any food is assimilated by a different type of enzymes. As for them, they act as catalysts, speeding up biochemical processes , so without them, food cannot be digested. The specificity of enzymes is a quality on the basis of which eating plans, embracing the philosophy of the separate nutrition, are made up.
Ferments are put into action in a special row, so to speak, so each group that follows gets down to work only after the one before it is done with their part. If the first group happens to fail while doing that, so does the second one.
