Top Trending Health Foods for Summer 2025

Summer 2025 is here, and with it comes a fresh wave of wellness trends focused on vibrant health, glowing skin, and food that fuels both body and soul.

At Bikini Bootcamp in Tulum, we’re always on the pulse of what’s new (and what’s worth keeping), blending ancient healing traditions with cutting-edge nutrition.

Whether you're joining us for a transformational retreat or simply looking to refresh your kitchen this season, here are the top trending health foods of Summer 2025 — plus a few clean eating ideas straight from our beachfront kitchen.

🌿 1. Sea Moss Everything

One of 2025’s most buzzed-about wellness trends, sea moss is rich in minerals like iodine, magnesium, and iron — all essential for hormonal balance and glowing skin. You’ll find it in smoothies, dressings, and even frozen treats this summer.

Try it: At Bikini Bootcamp, we blend fresh sea moss gel into our morning smoothies for a mineral-rich start.

🥭 2. Tropical Superfruits

Move over acai — this summer is all about lucuma, guava, dragon fruit, and golden berries. These anti-inflammatory fruits are loaded with antioxidants and vitamin C, perfect for sun-kissed skin and post-workout recovery.

Pro Tip: Enjoy them raw or tossed with a squeeze of lime and chili salt for a Tulum-style fruit bowl.

🥬 3. Adaptogenic Greens

From moringa to watercress, greens are going beyond kale in 2025. These leafy powerhouses support detoxification, energy, and even mood. Bonus? They’re gentle on digestion and ideal for hot climates.

Clean Eating Idea: Try a Bikini Bootcamp favorite — our Moringa Detox Salad with cucumber, mint, and a tahini-lime dressing (recipe below!).

🥥 4. Plant-Based Electrolytes

Forget sugary sports drinks. Coconut water, watermelon juice, and cucumber-lime elixirs are trending this summer as natural ways to hydrate and rebalance electrolytes, especially in the heat.

What we serve: Chilled agua fresca infusions at lunch, featuring hibiscus, ginger, and fresh citrus.

🫘 5. Sprouted Proteins & Legumes

Sprouting is back in a big way. Expect to see more sprouted chickpeas, lentils, and quinoa — easier to digest, higher in bioavailable nutrients, and gut-friendly.

Summer tip: Add sprouted lentils to wraps, or try our sprouted chickpea hummus with cucumber slices.

🍵 6. Herbal Ice Teas with Benefits

Functional iced teas — infused with ashwagandha, tulsi, hibiscus, or chamomile — are replacing high-caffeine drinks as go-to afternoon cool-downs.

At Amansala: Our guests love our iced hibiscus rose tea, known to support circulation and reduce inflammation.
