Rainbow Color Foods: An Ayurvedic Perspective
SPEAKERS
Instead of painting a rainbow, how about eating a rainbow of colors? Red, orange, yellow, green, white, blue and purple. Each of these colors has health benefits, including: – Improved vision – Decreased inflammation – Reduced risk of chronic diseases, including cancer, heart disease and diabetes – Strengthened immune system These benefits are due to the phytochemicals that occur naturally within these foods. Phytochemicals also give foods their distinct aroma and taste. While each color provides certain benefits when paired with other colours, the effects on your health are astonishing. That’s why it’s important to eat a wide variety of colours.
