Principle: The Shelton system responds to a food classification invented by the author, which distinguishes for example the group of fruit acids, the group of melons, etc..
Some combination are prohibited during the same meal: Acid – starch, acids – protein, sugar – starch, fat – protein, sugar – protein … milk should always be taken alone, the fruit also. Some meals are entirely protein, others provide only fruit or starch.
Critique: This method is not recommended because it can lead to deficiencies. Furthermore, this diet is too complicated to be effectively implemented. It can be applied only in very simplified, which amounts to a classic low-calorie diet.
