Antioxidant Salad

Tomato salad full of lycopene. Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant, which can reduce the inflammatory response to UV damage by  neutralising harmful molecules that are produced in the skin as a result.

Healthy Pairing Foods

Studies have shown that certain food combinations have been proven to increase nutrient absorption when consumed together. Combining the right foods could actually increase your body’s absorption of fiber, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, all necessary cornerstones for good health. Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, an antioxidant known as carotenoid, which gives tomatoes its color. Adding a healthy fat such as avocado makes the carotenoid more absorbable. www.bellomoi.com
