nutz + Rasin combination, good?

[TheBigDog]

part of my daily fat intake comes from Walnuts / ALmonds. lately I have been mixing 1/2 cup of walnuts OR Almonds w/ 1/8 cup of dry rasin (~16g of carb).

Is that bad? cuz' I have heard that we are not supposed to mix carb w/ fat.

By the way, I have this snack usually at 10:30am.

Please advice.

This is easy. You are doing everything fine. First of all, taking carbs in the first part of the day is OK, because your metabolism is at its highest, as for the mixing carbs and fat: you are not supposed to take in sugars and fat, because sugar results in an insulin spike, and insulin makes you gain fat. Raisins probably have fructose in them, but it's such an insignificant amount, so I wouldn't worry about it.
