Combining
foods makes eating more interesting and gives room for creativity.
However, there are great nutritional values in combining foods and how
they are combined matters a lot. There are some food nutrients that may
not be easily absorbed by the body but when you blend them with other
foods, they become available to the body with ease. Here are some of
these combinations.
Broccoli and Mustard
Raw broccoli
contains a cancer fighting compound known as sulforaphane but when you
cook your broccoli, you are exterminating the enzyme known as myrosinase
which renders sulforaphane accessible to your body. So, when you blend
your broccoli with mustard, you will be making use of the extra dose of
myrosinase in mustard to aid your body in absorbing more sulforaphane
from broccoli.
Tomato and Avocado
Taking tomato and avocado
together, either as a salad or sandwich, will boost the nutrients intake
of your body. Tomatoes contain antioxidants known as carotenoids and
these antioxidants are easily absorbed into the body when used with safe
fats. Researchers discovered that the combination of tomato and avocado
has the ability to boost the absorption of antioxidants in tomato by 15
times more than when the tomato is taken alone. If you don't like
avocados, you can make use of other safe fats like flaxseed oil or olive
oil.
Onion and Whole Grains
Your body needs zinc, a vital
trace mineral that helps in appropriate growth as well as sustenance of
your body and its immune system. Whole grains are good sources of zinc
and boosting your whole grain sandwich with sliced onion will ensure
that sulfurous compounds are introduced which help in increasing the
uptake of zinc by the body.
Banana and Yogurt
Have you ever
taken banana and yogurt together before? If you have not, you better try
them. The combination is great for your body after a workout. The
banana provides the carbohydrate that your body needs while the yogurt
provides the protein that will repair your worn out cells. The protein
in this blend reduces the absorption of liquid carbohydrate which in
turn leads to the reduction of your post-meal rapid blood glucose rise.
In addition, when these two foods get into your stomach, the nutrients
from banana will feed the good bacteria you drank in the yogurt in order
to enhance your immunity.
Spinach and Olive Oil
Vitamins A
and K in spinach are fat-soluble vitamins that are not easy to absorb
when there is deficiency of fat. The best combination for spinach is
olive oil because it contains high mono-saturated fat content, which is
good for the prevention of heart diseases. If you are not a fan of olive
oil, you can make use of sesame oil, flaxseed oil or any other nut oil.
