Variety & Colours

Variety

Eating a serving of fruits and veggies from each colour group is one way to add variety to your diet. Each colour group represents a different combination of nutrients. So, the more colours you can put on your plate, the better.

Colours

Fruits and vegetables can be divided into five colour groups:

  • Try to include at least 1 serving from each colour group every day.
  • Try new fruits and veggies! Choose a variety of colours!
  • Keep a copy of the Colour Tracking Chart on the fridge, at work or in your grocery bag.
  • Write down what you eat and add up the number of colours each week.
