In Verity’s new series Color Me Healthy, she looks at the ways______.

Different Colors can affect us in many different ways: that’s according to Verity Allen.(1)In her new series Color Me Healthy, Verity looks at the ways that colors can influence how hard we work and the choices we make. They can even change our emotions and influence how healthy we are.
    "Have you ever noticed how people always use the same colors for the same things?" says Verity.(2)"Our toothpaste is always white or blue or maybe red. It’s never green. Why not? For some reason we think that blue and white is clean, while we think of green products as being a bit disgusting. It’s the same for businesses.(3)We respect a company that writes its name in blue or black, but we don’t respect one that uses pink or orange. People who design new products can use these ideas to influence what we buy.
    During this four-part series, Verity studies eight different colors, two colors in each program. She meets people who work in all aspects of the color industry, from people who design food packets, to people who name the colors of lipsticks. Some of the people she meets clearly have very little scientific knowledge to support their ideas. However, she also interviews real scientists who are studying the effects of green and red lights on mice with some surprising results.
