Blue soothes and reduces tension throughout the body, helping with anxiety. Blue create a feeling of calmness, peacefulness, security, stability, and tradition. Because of this blue is a very popular color. Few foods are naturally blue in color. Other than blueberries, foods that appear blue are usually a shade of purple because of the combination of anthocyanins

(blue) and carotenoids (red). Purple or violet are a mixture of blue and red. These foods include: blueberries, blackberries, grapes, plumbs, prunes, figs, purple potatoes, ancient blue corn, red/purple cabbage, endives, borage, cornflower, and seaweeds. Blue and purple/ violet foods are very rejuvenating and healing because of their high levels of anthocyanins and other antioxidants. They also contain carotenoids, enzymes, fiber, iodine, and iron.

Black and gray are non-spectral colors. Black is colorless and often represents death or charred/burnt/decayed food. Thus, it is the most unhealthy color to use in a kitchen. Excessive black decor or black clothing produces a heavy, suppressing effect on the human physiology. Food that looks black or gray is not very appetizing. Gray, which is a combination of white and black, does not evoke any emotion. Gray may be trendy, but it is not a good color for business, ones home, or stimulating creativity. Psychologically, it is the choice color of people who lack energy and prefer a subdued life style. Picture which foods are gray: highly refined/processed or dead foods/liquids, void of nutrients.

White is a mix of all the possible colors of the visible spectrum. White is associated with purity. However, there are two types of white: One that is refined white (white flour, sugar, rice, etc.) which means it has been processed of all nutrients. And, the ‘natural’ white, such as cauliflower, garlic, ginger, onions, parsnips, potatoes, and various vegetables, which are actually not pure white, but more translucent or off white in color.

Black and white are not colors because they do not have specific wavelengths. White light contains all wavelengths of visible light. Black is the absence of visible light. Are the current black, white, and grey trends a disguise for socially engineering the masses? (e.g. Air NZ colors, fashion clothes and interior decorating colors.). Think about what wearing black clothing, working in a predominantly black or grey office, travelling in a black compartment, or consuming black or grey foods do to the human body, mind, emotions, and spirit.

Each color with its own frequency vibration corresponds to a particular organ and chakra, or energy center, in the body. Selecting and using a various colors of food enables one to harness its frequency, which in turn helps to create a specific effect and health benefit. Think about the colors of the different fruits and vegetables. How much color do you consume in your daily diet?
