Grapefruit Diet

Have you tried the grapefruit diet? You know the one where you have to eat “x” number of grapefruits a day with hardly anything else. It is supposed to increase your metabolism and burn off fat. While the fresh fruit is probably good for you, the biggest challenge is that if you drastically change your eating pattern from what you eat now to mostly grapefruit, you may be in for a big shock.

Diet After Effects

One friend of mine who tested this diet, ended up with an allergic reaction to grapefruits. Due to the acidity levels that changed in his body from eating so many grapefruits, his lips swelled up. So he ended up gaining from doing this diet. Here he wanted to reduce and all the grapefruit did was puff him up. Just another reason to check with your health care professional before attempting any new diet.

Quick Overview of Grapefruit Diet

We discovered yet another video for your enjoyment which talks about this interesting diet. It doesn’t cover all of the specifics, but it sure is fun to watch.

What Does Fad Diet TV Think?

First, grapefruits are good for you as is any fresh fruit. Just make sure you don’t have any allergies. We are strong believers in eating fresh fruits and vegetables as going natural is usually a common sense approach to eating. However, your body needs more than just one type of fruit. Also no fruit will burn off all of your sins from eating incorrectly.

We rate this diet as good only from the fresh fruit vantage point. However, it too is bogus because you have to ask yourself, “Can you live on this for the rest of your life?” If not, then tag it as bogus.

You cover it in a zesty cheese and you have a meal for a champion that will keep you warm for weeks. However, we have recently come across a hidden side effect that the chili dog industry wants to keep secret.
