Grapefruit Delicioso

Hey guys

Let me start by saying that a half plain grapefruit has 40 calories and half your daily vitamin C. Now we can talk about the healthy side of it. When I was a kid, my dad used to drink grapefruit juice in the morning before breakfast to help lower his cholesterol.

Grapefruits come in different varieties determined by their color — red, white and pink. It is available year round with the peak from January through April. Do you know that the grapefruit can increase the effects of caffeine and some drugs? So you should take precautions and check with your doctor if you’re taking medication.
Here are some health benefits associated with the grapefruit:

• Rich in the nutritional powerhouse Vitamin C
• Prevents kidney stones
• Boosts liver enzymes
• Promotes optimal health

Although there’s much more to the grapefruit, we will have some fun with the fruit in the kitchen next time. So stay tune for my Grapefruit Watercress Super Healthy Salad…

Love you guys
