Black

Hope everyone is having a Beautiful Black Day! This week’s theme in colors is going to be fruits. This suggestion came from dj at: http://djdblogginghere.wordpress.com/

If you have an idea or suggestion for something you would like to see featured in Weekly Colors, please comment in the comments section. I look forward to hearing from you!

For ‘Black’ we are going to take a look at some Black Fruits. We know from previous posts that the color black is associated with balance. Keeping the body in good nutrition balance helps us stay healthy. Eating dark colored fruit offers many health benefits. Anthocyanins are flavonoid category of poly-phenolic compounds found in dark colored fruits. These compounds contain anti-oxidants that offer protection against aging, cancers, and infections.
Black Fruits include: Blackberries, Black Cherries, Black Currants, Black Grapes, Mulberries, and many more.
