Carrot:
Carrots are renowned for their rich beta-carotene, which the body converts into Vitamin A, crucial for eye health (especially night vision) and skin regeneration. Their high fiber content aids digestion and promotes satiety. Potent antioxidants also protect cells. To maximize the absorption of their beneficial compounds, carrots are best consumed with healthy fats like olive oil. Versatile in both sweet and savory dishes, they pair wonderfully with fruits like apple, orange, and ginger, or in meat dishes.
Olive Oil:
Olive oil, especially in its extra virgin form, is a powerful source of health benefits due to its high content of polyphenol antioxidants and monounsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid). It supports heart health by helping to lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and raise good cholesterol (HDL). With its anti-inflammatory properties, it reduces inflammation in the body, prevents cell damage, and provides protection against chronic diseases. It supports the digestive system and contributes to skin health. An indispensable part of Mediterranean cuisine, it pairs wonderfully with salads, vegetable dishes, fish, legumes, and fresh bread.
Garlic:
Garlic, thanks to its allicin compound, offers strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It can boost the immune system, increasing resistance against illnesses. Furthermore, it contributes to cardiovascular health by helping regulate blood pressure and balance cholesterol levels. Widely used in traditional medicine, garlic is also known for its digestive support effects. An indispensable ingredient in meat dishes, vegetable sautés, and Mediterranean cuisine, it pairs wonderfully with herbs like rosemary and thyme.
Yogurt:
Yogurt, a fermented milk product, supports the digestive system and helps balance gut flora due to its rich probiotic content. This contributes to strengthening the immune system. It is also a high-quality source of protein and calcium, important for bone health and muscle development. With its slightly sour taste, it pairs perfectly with fruits, granola, or honey for breakfast. In main dishes, it adds flavor as the main component of cacık or various mezzes.
