Have you heard of food couples? It’s something quite incredible that’s also known as food synergies. It has the ability to transport any nutrient deep within your cells and allows more bioavailability of the nutrients. Both strawberries and raw cacao contain antioxidants and when eaten together, they have a much higher antioxidant bioavailability. The vitamin C in the strawberries helps to enhance the absorption of iron and magnesium in the cacao. We love this powerful food combination.
