Grapefruits are rich with vitamin C and A which is needed to improve our immune system. Grapefruit also a source of limonoids which assist in liver detoxification. I'm not a big fan of grapefruit but ever since i read in a magazine that, the pink and blood red fruit assist in weight loss (minus the club soda) i started to invest in this pretty fruit. Grapefruit comes with rules and regulation before one thinking of including them in their diet. If you are on medication for treating blood pressure,cholosterol,cancer treatment pills or certain painkillers, you might need to check with your doctor as the juice have adverse reactions with certain medicines
I love the tartness of the fruit in my juice. With gorgeous pink/red color grapefruit makes and ideal juice especially when you are into detoxification and i desperately need one of this glass right now...time to spring clean my liver.
