Day 6: Macronutrient Combining

Okay, we've covered a lot of "combining" techniques...but this one is by far the easiest. Granted, it's not all that much fun, but neither is carrying around a lot of fat, right?

The trick here is to simply break up your carbs, proteins and fats into separate meals throughout the day. Again, this is a trick to use for a few days at a time. This is not a lifestyle diet. However, this will create some interesting changes in your body chemistry, and that can included increased fat-burning.

Now, you cannot completely separate fats from proteins, proteins from carbs, etc...but that is not the point. The goal is to consume foods that derive their calories primary from one macronutrient. Try this over two meals for each marconutrient, and start with carbs in the morning, proteins in the afternoon, and fats in the evening.

Here's an example of how this may look. For your first two meals, you would consume 100% of your alloted calories for that meal from unrefined carbs such as oatmeal, yams, or brown rice. That's it—nothing else but this one food. Yes, your blood sugar will rise, but you will quickly lower it over the rest of the day.

For your next two meals (bear in mind these are all small meals), you may consume tuna fish, chicken breast, turkey breast, whey, and other very lean proteins. Again, do not worry about consuming too much protein at one sitting. Your body will adjust just fine if your kidneys are in good shape.

End the day with two large salads (you can add a water-based veggie like green peppers) with several tablespoons of olive oil. Feel free to use some balsamic vinegar with these salads.

Using this trick a few days a week will give you a kick in the fat-burning pants in several ways. First, your digestion will radically improve. The basis of food combining is to remove "offending" foods from your digestive path. While there are problems with this as a lifestyle diet, in my opinion, I do believe it works well for short periods of time. Remember, the greater your digestion, the greater your fat-burning.

You will also keep your body guessing all the time. Throwing a few curve balls at your diet usually pays dividends. Consider this just that—a fantastic way to trick your body into greater fat-burning.
