This book shows the way food needs to be eaten and in what combinations to have optimal digestion, minimal gas and great health.

We may need supplements to pick us up along the way, but the way to optimal health, is to eat in harmony with our digestive system's principles. A Very Simple Change Brings Results No matter how healthy your diet and lifestyle, undigested foods putrefy, ferment, produce gas and indigestion and manufacture toxic bacteria in our gut. This leads to low energy, premature aging, weight gain and poor health. In Fart Free Vegan, Jon shares an important tool that he used to reverse a four year case of chronic fatigue. When he first started on a raw vegan diet, it was a dismal failure. He couldn't shake the discomfort of the gas and bloating after every meal.

Examples include the common food combining mistakes that vegans make every day in their green smoothies, granolas and even their salads. And provides simple methods and alternatives so you can keep eating the foods you love, and lose the gas and indigestion.

The common vegan foods are categorized and simple rules of combining for healthy and efficient digestion are presented in an easy to follow format.

No matter what you eat, combining foods properly for a happy digestive system will reward you with abundant energy, effortless weight control and vibrant health.

It became the leading primer for almost 60 years for anyone wanting guidance on which foods should and should not be eaten at the same meal. Shelton presents information on the processes of normal digestion and examines why combinations of acids, fats, starches, sugars, and proteins disrupt these processes. This new edition has been slightly revised to reflect Shelton's vegetarian leanings.
