#2 – Chocolate and Apples
Due to apples containing the flavonoid quercetin, which can be found in their skin, they are proven to be extremely healthy. This flavonoid is known for reducing the risk of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, heart attacks, allergies, and some types of cancer. On the other hand, chocolate contains the flavonoid catechin which is known for reducing the risk of cancer and atherosclerosis. When these two foods are combined, they loosen clumpy blood platelets, which results in providing you with anticoagulant activity, as well as the improvement in your cardiovascular health. These facts were proven by Barry Halliwell, who is a food science professor at the National University of Singapore.
