Liv Lite's Journal, 17 Nov 19

Welcome to Motivational Monday! Do you "Eat the Rainbow"??

In addition to the red/pink, orange, yellow, green, blue/purple foods, consider the white, tan, dark brown and black foods, too!

White fruits and veggies are packed with the flavonoid quercetin (natural antihistamine and anti-inflammatory): onions, garlic, jicama, mushrooms, coconut, turnips, beans.
Tan foods are high in fibre: whole grains, oats, nuts
Dark brown foods are high in polyphenols: coffee, tea, dark chocolate
Black foods are high in minerals (iron & calcium): black beans-olives-sesame seeds, pepper & black tea

Taste the real food rainbow, not Skittles! LOL Have an awesome week :)
