Some foods not only taste better together, they complement each other nutritionally, as well. According to Spry Living, the following foods work wonders for your body when combined.
• Iron + Vitamin C. Iron rich foods such as spinach, clams, and other meat sources should be consumed with foods containing Vitamin C, such as oranges. The Vitamin C helps your body absorb the iron.
• Monounsaturated Fat + Vegetables. Monounsaturated fats are healthy fats found in such foods as avocado and olive oil. These fats help your body absorb the nutrients in vegetables.
• Apples + Grapes. Apples contain quercetin, a phtochemical that when combined with the catechin in red grapes, reduces a person's risk for stroke and heart attack.
