I believe she said "this is because the fruit with cause the SF to ferment and cause GI distress". Fruit does not cause anything particularly SF to ferment which in turn cause GI distress whether it be in the stomach, small intestine or colon. While some sugars in fruit maybe digested fast other sugars and the fiber in fruit are not digested (actually fermented) until they reach the colon. The GI distress can be caused by the sugars in the fruit such as fructose being fermented in the colon.

As for the crazy notion about food combining you might read this message which gives a link to an explanation of why the theory of food combining is total bunk.

Digestive enzymes may decrease slightly with age but in a healthy individual the decrease is quite small. Except for medical disorders such as lactose intolerance our bodies are quite capable of producing all of the digestive enzymes they need for a life time.
