What's more, eating foods in this group will protect you from many serious illnesses and can keep older people active for longer. So, have you got a big game tonight? Is it your turn to do the gardening? Then go ahead and treat yourself to one or even two of your favourite red foods.

 

B Orangefoods are brain food. They help you keep your mind on things and really improve your powers of concentration. On the physical side foods like mangoes, oranges and peaches have lots of vitamin C. This is important because that's the vitamin that helps your body fight off infections. As everyone knows, carrots are also fantastic for your eyesight. After all, you've never seen a rabbit wearing glasses, have you?

 

C Yellow foods are nature's way of helping us to stay happy. They make you more optimistic. Imagine that you're feeling a bit down in the dumps. Eat a banana and you'll feel a bit better. Eat a couple of slices of pineapple and you'll feel a smile coming on and by the time you finish your tall glass of lemonade, you'll be grinning from ear to ear! What could be easier? Enjoying yellow foods is better for you, emotionally, than hearing the best jokes in the world.

 

D Broccoli, lettuce and cucumbers are all green foods. These foods are great when you want to relax, calm yourself down or keep your emotions under control. Green foods are good for you because they contain vitamins and minerals that keep your teeth and bones strong and healthy, so next time your mum tells you to eat all your peas don't complain, just do it. Remember, mums always know what's best for you, no mater how old you are!

 

E You've had a hard day and now you just want to flop in front of TV for a bit before you go to bed. When your tummy stars rumbling you go in search of a quick snack – but what should you eat? The best thing at this time of the day is something blue. Blue foods are soothing, both emotionally and physically, and prepare you for a good night's rest. Say goodnight with a delicious bowl of blueberries or a handful of tasty raisins.

 

F Shakespeare, Da Vinchi and Picasso must have all been fans of purple foods. This is because fruits and vegetables like figs, prunes and beetroot make people more creative. If that isn't a good enough reason to eat them? Then think about this … purple foods can keep you looking young! Imagine being eighty years old, but looking as if you're forty and just about to finish writing your second best-selling novel. Bring on the purple foods!
