The color diet was created quite recently, but has already managed to show its results. The advantage of this diet is that you can stay full and not count calories all the time.
The color diet is a nutritional system, the basic rule of which is to eat certain colors. Substances that give one or another color to products affect the body in their own way. Moreover, with such a diet, the necessary control of appetite and an improvement in the taste of food will occur.
Natural dyes are responsible for the color of plant foods and have a healing effect. Dyes are usually divided into the so-called "warm" and "cold": "warm" warm (shades of yellow and red), "cold", on the contrary, cool and soothe, and shades of green balance these two groups, help to maintain harmony.
