Healthy Food Pairs |
Spinach + Oranges Although spinach (菠菜) has lots of iron, your body doesn't absorb (吸收) it well when spinach is eaten alone. But with vitamin (维生素) C by its side, this vegetable becomes a true hero. |
Avocado + Tomato Tomatoes are a super food. Eat some avocado (鳄梨) at the same time and you've got a super food, because the fat in the avocado helps the body absorb seven times more lycopene (番茄红素). |
Green Tea + Lemon Drinking several cups of green tea is a good habit, because it can protect your heart. But if you intake some vitamin C at the same time, it can't be better. The vitamin C in lemons helps your body absorb 13 times more Catechins (儿茶酚) than it can get from tea alone. |
