Powerfood duos:two ingredients that you can combine to get more benefit from the nutrients. These are three good combinations.
1. Eggs + salad Combine your salad with an egg and your body will absorb more of the antioxidants lycotene and beta-carotene from the vegetables. It is good to add some fats to your raw vegetables. This is also possible, for example, by mixing pieces of avocado in your salad or by using olive oil as a dressing.

2. Steak + broccoli Steaks contain a lot of iron, which, in combination with vitamin C, is absorbed more quickly into your blood. Hence the combination steak with broccoli, a vegetable rich in vitamin C. Don't you eat meat? Tofu is a good substitute, rich in iron.
3. Garlic and onions + whole grains
By adding garlic and onions to whole grains, zinc and iron are more easily absorbed by your body.
