One of her top recommendations is blueberries paired with dark chocolate. She says this combination can help improve brain health and reduce inflammation because both are rich in polyphenols. Dark chocolate complements blueberries perfectly, making this combo a tasty way to boost cognitive health.

Another effective pairing she recommends is apple with a sprinkle of cinnamon. She explains that apples are low on the glycemic index and high in dietary fibre, which helps maintain steady blood sugar levels. Cinnamon, on the other hand, improves insulin sensitivity.

Deepsikha says, "This combination can help manage one's blood sugar and diabetes better because apples have a low GI and are high in fibre, and cinnamon can make your body much more insulin sensitive."

She also recommends combining guava with kiwi for a natural immunity boost. She says both fruits are rich in vitamin C, which plays a crucial role in strengthening the immune system.

Deepsikha also advises taking pomegranate with soaked chia seeds, as pomegranates are rich in antioxidants, while chia seeds are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids.

These four fruit combinations are not only simple and easy to make but also allow you to enjoy your fruits in a more functional, health-focused way.
