Basil, turmeric, buckwheat and rosemary not only make the dish more delicious but also provide many antioxidant compounds, supporting overall health.

Basil

Basil contains many plant compounds such as eugenol and rosmarinic acid, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to protect cells from the effects of free radicals.

This is also a herb that is easy to combine in many dishes. You can add fresh basil to cheese, fruit salad with strawberries or peaches, or use it to make homemade salad dressings.

Turmeric is a rich source of curcumin - a compound that has antioxidant properties and supports the body's anti-inflammatory response.

To increase curcumin absorption, turmeric should be combined with black pepper. Piperine in black pepper helps the body absorb curcumin more effectively, thereby maximizing the benefits of turmeric. This combination is suitable for curry, stir-fried dishes or turmeric milk dishes.

Menstruate is especially suitable when combined with tomatoes, beans, lentils and olive oil - common ingredients in the Mediterranean diet, which are considered to be beneficial for the cardiovascular system and help reduce chronic inflammation.

Rosemary

Rosemary contains many antioxidant compounds such as triterpen, phenolic acid and terpenoids, and also has natural antibacterial properties.

This herb is suitable for processing meat dishes, potatoes, vegetable soups or mixing with butter, soft cheese to spread on toast.
