HEALTHY FOOD BLENDS

Certain food combinations work together

to give you the maximum health benefit possible.

By properly combining certain foods you can

lower your cancer risk, strengthen your bones,

boost your immunity, and improve your skin.

SALMON AND A GLASS OF RED WINE

The antioxidants in the red wine absorb the omega-3 fatty acids in salmon.

This splendid duo keeps depression at bay and enhances brain

function the following day.

SPINACH, TOMATO, CARROT, MARJORAM AND A

TABLESPOON OF OLIVE OIL

These antioxidant loaded veggies work a lot better with olive oil since

it helps the body absorb the nutrients for a more stable immune

system, glowing skin and strong heart. With Marjoram, the

antioxidant potency shoots up to 200 percent higher.

SWEET POTATO WITH CHEESE

Sweet potato, which has beta carotene and lutein, while cheese,

containing fatty acids, work amazingly well as the latter enables

fast absorption of the carotenoids in the former.

SWEET POTATO WITH ALMONDS

Sweet potatoes are rich in beta carotene and vitamin C which works

well with tree nuts containing vitamin E (such as almonds) in order

to help lower cholesterol levels.

SWISS CHARD, SPINACH OR BROCCOLI

SAUTÉED IN OLIVE OIL

Sautéing swiss chard, spinach or broccoli in oil is a combo which

contains both vitamin K and healthy fat. The latter lowers

cholesterol and breaks down vitamins like vitamin K which is

crucial in preventing blood clots.

TRY A MIX MADE WITH DRIED APRICOTS,

DRIED PAPAYA, ALMONDS AND WALNUTS

This snack is full of anti-ageing nutrients which are easily accessible

and portable.

TUNA WITH LEMON

A squeeze of lemon makes tuna not just smell good but taste

absolutely fantastic. Aside from the flavour, lemon converts the

iron in tuna into a more absorbable form which feeds your

blood with more oxygen.

WILD RICE WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Onions contain sulphur compounds that amplify the absorption

of the zinc in wild rice.
