Hemp

 and

 Soya

Hemp seed and soy bean and their by-products are treated
differently from other legumes/pulses as they are so high in
protein. They should not be mixed with starch or sugary products,
but with green leafy salads in order to contribute to an aspiring
food combining regime. Hemp is a perfect source of protein and
fibre as mentioned earlier.

Nuts

and

other

seeds (expect peanuts – see pulses and
legumes)

Being packed with vitamin and minerals, nuts and seeds provide
an important part of the vegetarian diet. With the exception of
chestnut (being a starch) they are also an excellent source of
protein, compatible with large salads and vegetable dishes.
Almonds, brazil, coconut, hazelnut and pine kernels are alkaline
forming. Sesame, sunflower, pumpkin and hemp are your best
choices for seed. Eat in moderation (50-100g max.) Nut and seed
butters are an excellent way of obtaining the nutrients in a more
easily absorbable form.

Cream

 Cheeses

Classed as a fat they are compatible with most foods. They are
also the only recommended cheese to have with jacket potato.
Cream cheese means dairy, not soya cream cheese or soft
cheese.
