1. Lemon Juice with Broccoli: The vitamin C in lemon juice helps your body absorb plant-based iron from broccoli.
2. Strawberries And Eggs:
Eat strawberries with eggs to absorb their antioxidant ingredient ellagic acid. Egg fat helps absorb this antioxidant.
3. Turmeric, Black Pepper, Olive Oil, And Heat:
Black pepper's phytonutrient piperine and olive oil's fat promote curcumin absorption, while heat boosts its effects.
4. Carrots And Olive Oil, Avocado And Red Peppers: Vitamin A is fat-soluble, so eating carrots or red peppers with healthy fats like olive oil or avocado improves absorption.
5. Chickpeas and Rice:
Rice has more bioavailable methionine than chickpeas, which are poor. Combining them gives a comprehensive amino acid profile for protein use.
6. Lemon with Green Tea: Lemon adds more than flavor. Lemon's vitamin C boosts green tea's antioxidant absorption, enhancing its health benefits.
