Brain Boosting Salads

The Year 12 Food Studies class have been focusing on the role food plays in influencing mental health. Brain Boosters is a new company that designs, makes and sells food products that are thought to boost people's moods. Using the Brain Boosters site, students were required to design and create a fresh salad utilising 8 different ingredients, as part of a new range of salads that benefit mental health and wellbeing. 

 

Upon completing their salad, students were then required to take a photo and include annotations explaining how the different ingredients benefit people's moods. Website hhtps://www.thegoodmoodfood.com.au/ is a great source of information, breaking down foods into colours and explaining, not only the nutritional benefits of different foods, but also how they influence our mood.
