Eat a Rainbow

Aloha ‘Ohana!

If your plate looks like this when you’re eating, you’re doing something right!

Did you know each color of food has specific benefits? We’ve compiled a list of the different benefits tied to different colors to help you narrow your grocery list!

Red: Red foods are often rich in antioxidants that fight free radicals, support heart health, and help skin renewal.

Orange: Orange foods such as oranges and carrots are often high in vitamin C, work to boost immunity, support eye health, and can help reduce blood pressure.

Yellow: Foods like bananas, lemons, and yellow bell peppers, support digestion, boost immunity, and promote skin health.

Green: Green foods work to aid in tissue healing, detoxify the body, and support eye health.

Blue and purple: Foods like blueberries, blackberries, and eggplants boost memory, reduce inflammation, and protect against skin damage.

Yearly Physicals!

Aloha ‘Ohana!

When you hear the word “physical,” you may think of 'hanabata' days when you had to visit the doctor to get shots for school. But a physical is more than just shots or a physical exam. And both children AND adults can benefit from attending regular physicals. 


You may feel fine, but catching problems BEFORE they become serious means:
Finding a problem when it is easier to treat (such as diabetes, heart disease, or cancer). Saving you money, and potentially saving your life.



Call (808) 293-9231 or visit www.koolauloachc.org/yearly-physicals to learn more or schedule an appointment.

Nurtured by Nature

We're Nurtured by Nature...

Aloha ‘Ohana!

Did you know that psychological research is advancing our understanding of how time in nature can improve our mental health and sharpen our cognition?

Yes - it’s true! Spending time in nature is linked to both cognitive benefits and improvements in mood, mental health and emotional well-being. Feeling connected to nature can produce similar benefits to well-being, regardless of how much time one spends outdoors.

So, on this holiday weekend, keep in mind that spending time with your family at the beach or park is not only a great way to connect with each other, but also a balm for our busy brains. Have fun out there!
