Last year, there was a major increase, about 108 percent, in foods making detox claims. According to the market research firm Mintel, detoxing will be a major trend in consumer packaged goods in 2010.

Detoxifying has been present in recent years, but it has only been making rounds recently. The theory said that the body becomes overloaded with “toxins,” which we must get rid of.

Times like these make me think how lemons can add a touch of color to an otherwise bland and boring meal. And since they are one of the most versatile fruits out there, it is easy to imagine how lemons can be used in both sweet and savory recipes.

They can also be used as household cleaning aid since they have a very low pH level. They are great for removing stains and smells from wood countertops, cutting boards and wooden utensils.

But most importantly, lemons are widely used in foods, and…
