Simone Austin, spokesperson for the Dietitian’s Association of Australia, said, “I would agree with all. Maybe not oranges as they have a little more sugar - but if you’re eating the whole orange and not juicing you are likely to self-regulate and not keep on eating heaps of them. You would get full.”

What do these free-for-all foods have in common? “Lots of water and dietary fibre means you will become full quite quickly. You also have to chew these foods well so you tend to eat them more slowly,” noted Austin.
