Food combining- Any thoughts/experiences?

I have heard a lot about food combining (combining fruit+other foods) causes the fruit to ferment and causes digestive discomfort (gas, bloating etc.). I have also heard to only eat fruit in the morning on an empty stomach and not again after eating any other food.

Apparently these food theories apply to everyone, but are especially applicable to people with IBS because of our sensitive digestive systems.
Has anyone experienced problems like this due to these theories? or could they just be myths?

Doesn't apply to this diet.

Food combining has been shown to be a bunch of nonsense. For example, most foods contain carbs and proteins that cannot be separated from each other. The notion of food combining was developed by a person that had a very poor understanding of how the body digests food
