Au contraire. Dr. McD recommends finishing a meal (definitely including veg) with fruit as a dessert.

FWIW - If you try to get 2 different experts to agree on every point, you will drive yourself nuts. My advice: pick 1 and stick with him or her.

It comes from the principles of food combining which were disproven long ago

I actually went to see Dr. Carney as a patient and I have to say it was a terrible experience. Stick with Dr. McDougall and Jeff's advice.

No doubt! :D
