If we eat together, the servant will tell us the food
- Beans + noodles = savory bean noodles¹: Beans are rich in protein and dietary fiber, and noodles are high in carbohydrates, so they provide energy. Eating both foods together can help keep you full longer and help control blood sugar.
- Buckwheat noodles and radish¹: Buckwheat has a lot of antioxidants called rutin, which makes blood vessels healthy, and radish is rich in vitamin C and dietary fiber. Eating the two together reduces the calories in noodles and aids digestion.
- Naengmyeon and Vinegar¹: Naengmyeon has an appropriate ratio of carbohydrates to protein, and vinegar works to break down fat and sugar in the blood. Eating both foods together is effective for weight loss.
- Tomato spaghetti and olive oil¹: Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, an antioxidant, which is good for cancer prevention, and olive oil contains omega-3, a good fatty acid. Eating both foods together increases the absorption of lycopene.
- Carrots and cooking oil¹: Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, an antioxidant that is good for eyesight protection and skin health, and cooking oil acts as a beta-carotene solubilizer. Eating both foods together increases the absorption of beta-carotene.
- Bracken and Garlic¹: Bracken is rich in iron and calcium, so it is good for blood formation and preventing osteoporosis. Garlic contains alliin, which helps control blood pressure and strengthen immunity. If you eat the two foods together, iron and calcium are well combined and enter the body well.
- Eggs and Garlic¹: Eggs contain various nutrients such as protein and choline, so they are good for muscle development and strengthening memory. Garlic lowers bad cholesterol levels and prevents arteriosclerosis. Eating both foods together helps blood circulation.
- Apple and Chocolate²³: Apple and chocolate are a great food combination. This is because the flavonoids in chocolate and the quercetin in apples combine to make antioxidants more powerful.
- Sweet potato and kimchi⁴: Sweet potato and kimchi go well together. It's harmonious in terms of taste, but it's also a good combination nutritionally. This is because the red pepper powder in kimchi increases the absorption rate of vitamin A in sweet potatoes.
- White milk and syrup⁴: White milk and syrup are a bad food combination to eat together. People who are not good at white milk often add syrup to sweeten it, but this makes digestion difficult. This is because the sugar and artificial sweeteners in the syrup denature the proteins in the milk.
