What fruits combine well with avocado?

Other than cucumbers and tomatoes. Does OJ combine well? Should it be eaten alone?

I don't have the info on hand, but you can go to waiworld.com and read all of the articles again, they address in detail which substances (fiber/sugar/etc) should and shouldn't be combined. It would take us decades to say 'dont combine this specific food with these specific foods', that's why we look at what is actually in the food (lots of fiber versus little fiber, lots of sugar versus little sugar) and then say, 'don't combine a lot of this substance (fiber) with this substance (protein). I'm not even sure that's correct, but that's how you should learn these things. For me, I only eat one item at a time, just because it's easier for my body to handle. The only thing I sometimes combine with my food is water.

OJ and avocado?
No.
Just tomatoes, cucumber and nuts (or egg yolks) in my experience.

I dunno what the question is: is it, what combines well digestively speaking or are we talking taste? I find that salmon and avocado is great.. but salmon is no fruit hehe..
I think peaches and nectarines mix well with avo.. before wai I used to do a salad of fresh spinach (that's non-Wai), avocado, nectarines and macadamia nut oil. Perhaps just nectarines and avo? And also I find honey dew melon and avocado is quite a nice salad, and just some little olive oil? The last one I know is great..
But when it comes to digestion, is there a problem with mixing avocado with fruit?

Egg yolks with avocado? Is there a typo because avocado is fibrous and you don't want to combine fiber with animal food.

no typo.
As always, the classifications made are not 100% correct; they are guidelines.
There are exceptions; avocado with egg yolks is such an exception.

Yeah I wonder why too. Wouldn't digestion not be optimal as a result? Wouldn't there be bloating, cramps and gas?

The reason is that it works well, and we dont know why.
Maybe not for everybody, but certainly for me. (no bloating, cramping or gas)
