Research has shown that the colour of our food can send signals to the brain which may be stronger than our taste buds and sense of smell. Nutritionists claim that eating a variety of coloured food can make us feel more satisfied – which is great news for those of us who are trying to eat sensibly. They suggest that colours indicate nutrients and we will gain a greater variety of vitamins and mineral if we eat a wide selection fo different coloured fruits and vegetables. So be creative in the kitchen and eat colourful fruits and vegetables – meals to boost your mood as well as your health.
