Scientists are learning that combining two or more polyphenols may team up to improve wellness benefits as well as to boost slimming. Travis Stork, MD, says one of his favorite combinations is coffee with honey. The chlorogenic acid in coffee beans turns on fat burning to speed metabolism. When combined with sweet honey, a natural prebiotic, the pair can reduce bloat and constipation.
