Detoxing is one of those health trends that never really goes away, and for good reason. The detoxification process is known to improve general health and assist with weight loss, and all it takes to get started is a little know-how and a few serves of nature's sweetener: fruit!

1. Lemon

The intense sourness of lemon is enough to keep most of us from consuming them in large quantities, but there are plenty of good reasons to add more lemon to your diet. Not only are they one of nature's most acidic fruits, making them great catalysts for digestion, but they also contain plenty of vitamin C, and are a known cure for gastric upsets. If you're still not interested in sucking on a lemon, you can still tap into the fountain of health by adding them to juices and squeezing them over salads, soups, and even fish and chips.

2. Pineapple

Pineapples have brought the world so many wonderful things, from Hawaiian pizza to pina coladas, but even those perks can't compare with the formidable nutrient content. The humble pineapple helps to improve digestion and break down proteins in the body, but the magic only works when the fruit is fresh - canned pineapple has few of these benefits to offer. A fresh pineapple can be used as a flavour-enhancing tropical container for a wide range of meals and drinks, from sesame ginger chicken to jalapeno margaritas.

3. Oranges

Just like lemons, these are a great source of vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that fights the effects of free radicals on your body. Oranges are also low in calories and high in fibre, but unlike their sour cousins, they make great afternoon snacks all on their own. The classic orange flavour also pairs well with a range of other acidic detox fruits, including lemon, berries, grapefruit, pineapple, and pomegranate. Why not mix it up and combine for a healthy, cooling juice over Summer?

4. Apple

Loved by pie fanatics across the globe, apples are full of health benefits, but only before they've been introduced to the oven. These classic lunchbox additions are best eaten raw and with the skin on for maximum absorption of their many vitamins, fibre, minerals, phytochemicals and pectin. Plus, when you're in the mood for a little more variety, apples will fit in nicely alongside most other fruits in a salad. Apples are a great snack and with many varieties available, there is bound to be something to suit everyone.

5. Berries

Raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries are amongst the most beloved members of the fruit family tree, and not just because of sweetness. These thin-skinned flavour bombs also have a high concentration of vitamin C and fibre, making them the answer to effective detox foods you'll actually enjoy eating. Even if berries alone don't get you excited, they can be easily incorporated into smoothies, added to breakfast bowls, or, for the maximum detox benefit, crushed up in water. Check which is in season to avoid a bitter bite, or consider frozen berries for smoothies.
