I love eating red food. I study a lot so I feel tired very often. My doctor says that I should eat red foods, if I need extra boots or if I want to stay healthy longer. It protects me from illnesses and gives me enough energy to be productive during the day.

I'm a fan of peaches and oranges. I know that orange foods are full of vitamin C and it helps my organism to fight off infections. Doctors say that orange food is good for concentration and eyesight, so I eat a lot of carrots and mangoes too.

Mira

I live in Finland and the weather here isn't very sunny. So sometimes I feel depressed. But I started eating yellow foods and they make me happier. For example, when I'm down I always eat a banana. My brother loves eating pineapples. He says it's the best way to cheer up the mood in a short time.

Daniel

When I was a child I always complained when parents told me to eat green foods. I wanted chocolate or sweets but not healthy things. Now I'm doing sports, I'm a football player. And my trainer told me to practise a lot. I have a special diet and my doctor recommends eating green foods as much as I can. If you eat green foods you take many minerals and vitamins which keep your bones and body strong and healthy. Now my plate is full of peas, cucumbers and broccoli.

Miranda

A year ago I was preparing for my State Exam. It was a difficult period full of sleepless nights. After that, I had some problems with my sleep. Our family doctor recommended eating blue foods in the evening. They are soothing and help to sleep faster. Every time my tummy starts rumbling I take a plate with blueberries as a quick snack. It calms me down and I sleep well.

Samuel

People say purple foods can keep you younger and make you creative. I don't believe it. I love figs but I'm very far from creative. Maybe the problem is that I don't like eating beetroots. I don't know. I'm not artistic, but I'm a sportsman. Have you known that figs are a good source of calcium and potassium?
