ONI'm not talking about Meghan and Harry or Beyonce and Jay-Z 😏 I'm talking about nutrients that when paired together actually work harder for your body making them a nutrition POWER couple! 👏🏻💥
💥Eggs + avocado --> the egg yolk helps vitamin E get absorbed from the avocado, not to mention adds a source of protein to your avocado toast! 🥑
💥Green tea + lemon --> the lemon helps you get more of the powerful antioxidants from the tea called catechins. 🍋
💥Beans + peppers / spinach + lemon --> pairing something that has vitamin C with something that contains plant-based iron helps you get more iron. Especially great to know for my vegans and vegetarians out there!🫑
💥 Black pepper helps your body better absorb more of the beneficial properties of turmeric. 🧡
💥Olive oil helps to increase the amount of lycopene our bodies get from tomatoes. Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant that supports skin health 🍅
⠀
💥 Almonds + yogurt. Yogurt contains PRObiotics and almonds contain PREbiotics making them a dynamic duo to help keep your gut healthy.
