10 Foods that Look And Help Body Parts!

We are what we eat, but as it turns out, there is a larger similarQity between the human body and food than we initially thought. We found 10 foods that look a lot like the body part they actually help. A coincidence? Maybe but it doesn't take away this handy advice!

Carrot - Eyes


If you slice the carrot, you will easily identify the similarities between it and the eye. Indeed, the carrot is wonderful for the eyes; it's rich in vitamins and antioxidants such as beta carotene, which diminish the risk of ocular degeneration, the number one reason for loss of sight among adults.

Walnut - Brain


The folds, wrinkles and shape of the walnut are reminiscent of the brain, and it's little wonder that walnuts are called: "Brain food". Wall nuts are full of linoleic alpha acid, an unsaturated amino acid of the Omega 3 type, which is essential to the biological process of the body. The amino acid has an important function in building brain cells and keeping them functioning properly.

Celery - Bones


The long and thin stems of the celery look like bones and help them too. The celery is an excellent source of silicon, which is part of the molecular structure that gives bones their enormous strength. An interesting coincidence is that bones are 23% sodium, and so is the celery.

Avocado - Womb


It looks like a womb and is great for fertility, the avocado is a great source of folic acid, which research finds is great for reducing the risk of displacement of the cervix. Also, folic acid is recommended for pregnant women or women planning to become pregnant, as it helps in the prevention of birth defects.

Oysters - Testicles



Research shows that oysters are very beneficial for the male sexual organs. Research conducted in Holland found that a diet of oysters contains a lot of zinc and folic acid, which vastly improve the quality of the sperm.

Grapefruit- Breast


The similarity between citric fruits and the female breast might be a coincidence, but it is backed by clear health advantages. The peel of the grapefruits contain a petrochemical called Limonoid, and research done on lab animals and human cells has proven that it helps to delay the reproduction of cancer cells, especially breast cancer.

Tomato - Heart



If you slice a tomato, you'll notice a variety of cells that remind us of the structure of the heart. Research has found that the Lycopene in tomatoes serves as an antioxidant and protects the cellular structures and DNA from the damaging influence of free radicals that damage healthy cells and may help cancer to grow. Also, Lycopene reduces cholesterol levels, which may cause heart damage, and even heart disease. And to cap it all off, if you add a little unsaturated fat to tomatoes (such as olive or avocado oil), you will be able to absorb the Lycopene 10 times better.

Red Wine - Blood


Red wine is rich in antioxidants and polyphenols, including a material called Resveratrol which contains great health advantages. The resveratrol supplies the body protection from damaging factors in the blood, including bad cholesterol (LDL), it lowers the risk of blood clots and prevents the contraction of the blood vessels, which allows for a better blood flow.

Ginger - Stomach


Anyone who's suffered a stomach ache and drank tea with Ginger has already felt the influence of this plant, so it only makes sense that it looks a bit similar to the digestion system. Ginger is known for fights stomach cramps, reducing vomiting and nausea, helps with gassy digestions and strengthens the mucus layer in the stomach.

Sweet potato - Pancreas


Another food that looks like what it helps, the sweet potato is rich in beta carotene, a powerful antioxidant that defends all the tissues in the body, including the pancreas, from damages related to old age or cancer.
