Have you ever heard the expression, “Eat the Rainbow”?
Today, I’m feeling extra thankful for something simple yet powerful: the rainbow of colours that nature provides in plant-based foods. From the vibrant reds of tomatoes to the deep greens of kale, the golden glow of turmeric to the purple hues of eggplants, each colour tells a story of nourishment, healing and vitality.
What’s incredible is how these colours do more than brighten our plates—they also fuel our bodies in unique ways:
-
- Reds are rich in antioxidants that support heart health.
- Greens are packed with chlorophyll, which aids detoxification.
- Yellows and oranges provide immune-boosting vitamin C.
- Purples and blues fight inflammation and promote brain health.
Every meal becomes an opportunity to be grateful—not just for how these foods taste but for what they do for us. It’s a reminder of how beautifully connected we are to the earth and its bounty.
Let’s Celebrate the Colours Together! ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜
FOOD-WISE 🙂
Next time you’re building a meal, take a moment to appreciate the vibrant colors on your plate. What’s one color you want to incorporate more of? Share with me—I’d love to hear!
Here’s to eating the rainbow and being thankful for all the goodness it brings.
With gratitude!
I started out several years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
