What are Rainbow Foods?

Quite simply, rainbow foods are all the brightly colored fresh fruits and vegetables we should be eating on a regular, daily basis as part of a healthy diet plan.

Eating a variety of fresh produce each day provides our bodies with all the essential micronutrients essential for fighting off disease, strengthening the immune system and holding back the ageing process.

The vibrant colors of fruit and vegetables are associated with specific nutrients and when eaten as part of a healthy rainbow diet guarantee consumption of a wide range of essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

If you're looking for healthy weight loss ideas, or just a simple, convenient way to include more fresh rainbow foods in your diet, then try some of these healthy soup recipes or follow these great tips on how to make fruit smoothies.
