Whenever I eat high raw (this is my 3rd atttempt due to this problem) I experience a constant burning feeling in my stomach as well as nausea. I'm familiar with the art of food combining , but that doesn't seem to help. The foods that cause the most problems seem to be sweet fruits and melons. I don't have this problem when I'm eating cooked foods. Any ideas?

I am having the exact same problem. I noticed the burning was extreme to the point where I had to curl up in a ball and when I ate watermelon on an empty stomach for breakfast. It felt like someone poured pure acid into my stomach. This forced me to stop eating it altogether.

I am also having trouble with most foods, especially green smoothies. They cause a lot of pain and sit in my stomach not digesting for up to 8 hrs. I tried enzymes and hydrochloric acid to aid digestion and they did not help...

Right now I am eating mostly non-melon fruits and juicing all of my vegetables, since everything else seems to cause pain and indigestion

I did not have any of these problems while eating cooked food

Celery juice seems to help mine. My stomach lining was inflamed and I took some kind of enyzme therapy for it until I discovered how wonderful celery makes my stomach feel. I read something about hydrochloric acid and celery but I don't remember what it did. Hope everything clears up.:)
