Okay, if there are any experienced raw foodists on this forum (or simply digestive experts), I need your input. I'm currently trying to stick with an 100% raw food diet.

Obviously that involves eating TONS of fruit. There is all kinds of information online about which kinds of fruits combine with with (ex. sub-acid, acid, sweet, etc). But I was wondering if smoothies combine well with solid food?

Obviously your body can only take in so much juice at a time. Therefore, often I supplement my smoothies with solid fruit to make sure I stay full. Is that bad for digestion, even if I'm following the acid-sub-acid-sweet fruit combining rules?

For intance, if I drink a pear smoothie while eating pears at the same time, is that bad? Thanks for your input!
