While there is no real evidence to
show that food combining diets improve digestion or enhance weight loss, there
are some foods that are best enjoyed together to get the best from their
nutrients.
Mix up your berries
Berries are bursting with
cancer-fighting antioxidants - but if you really want to benefit, try mixing up
the berries in your bowl. Research published in the Journal of Nutrition found
that eating a variety of berries at the same time significantly increases their
antioxidant activity.
Enjoy strawberries and a handful of blueberries for
example, or buy frozen mixed berries to use in smoothies. Just don't use
yoghurt - milk proteins bind to antioxidants and so can prevent them from being
processed as efficiently.
