This is where you might want to reconsider that fat-free dressing on your salad and opt for an olive oil-based one. Another good combo that does the same trick - steak and broccoli. You're not only allowing the steak's fat help absorb those great broccoli antioxidants, but you're also helping to neutralize harmful carcinogens in grilled meat. Certain compounds in cruciferous veggies like broccoli and cauliflower can help the body get rid of carcinogens that form on meat that's been charred on a grill. For breakfast, give oatmeal a superfood boost by drinking a glass of orange juice along with it. Oatmeal is a super cholesterol fighter, and the vitamin C in OJ helps stabilize LDL, or bad cholesterol. Give yourself the best shot at health by eating a variety of healthful foods.
