对色彩的品味
How Food Color Affects Our Bodies
The bright colors found in our food are called “Phytonutrients” and they act as a chemical barrier to protect plants from harsh environments. These Phytonutrients also support various aspects of our health ecosystem and, 巧合的是, make our dinner plates less boring!
Every Color Carries Its Own Magic
- Red (Lycopene): Enhances 心脏健康, skin appearance & 肺功能
- 橙色 & Yellow (Beta Cryptoxanthin): Reduce risk of heart disease while repairing skin both externally & 在内部
- Green (Sulforaphane): Balances hormones, supports detoxification & 保护视力
- 蓝色的 & Purple (Anthocyanins): Improve cognitive function, oral health & 心脏健康
- 白色 & Brown (Allicin): Promote liver & gastro health while reducing risk of certain cancers
Variety Is The Spice Of Life
You may have found yourself asking “Should I take a multivitamin” or “How do I know if I’m eating right?” An easy way to test if you are eating well is to make sure you’re getting at least one of each of these colors along with 35 grams of fiber every day.
Savoring this information and absorbing the details can be tough on your own. As part of her custom wellness programs, Dr. Marguerite Weston will guide you through nutrition planning to make shopping and meal preparation easier to digest!
