Developed by Dr. William Howard Hay in the 1920s to treat his own health issues, the original Hay Diet is a food-combining system based on the theory that proteins and carbohydrates should not be eaten in the same meal. This approach was designed to improve digestion and lead to better overall health by preventing digestive 'conflicts'.

The Dr William Howard Hay food combining diet was developed in the 1920s by physician William Howard Hay, who claimed it helped him recover from serious health issues.
