cause grapefruit is a great fat burn'n fruit....I too eat things I'm not to crazy about to help get the results I'm after..
Little info on grapefruits from the boys at scivation...
Grapefruit is loaded with naringin. The majority of caffeine and other alkaloids
are metabolized by various enzymes such as CYP1A2, CYP2E1 and CYP3A4. However,
naringin has been documented to inhibit CYP34A (as well as CYP1A2) activity in human
liver. This means that naringin may increase the half life (extending the activity) of
various alkaloids, especially caffeine. Many fat burners utilize naringin for enhanced
alkaloid effect. We got hooked on in it 10-11 years ago in the Cut Diet and since then, we
have never dealt with anything else. We will allow oranges if necessary but they do not
contain as much naringin as grapefruit. So unless you cannot stomach them at all, eat
your grapefruit! We recommend sprinkling a packet or two of Splenda® on them. In a
recent study in La Jolla, CA, grapefruit consumption was found to be associated with a
reduction in weight. Moreover, 2-hour post-glucose insulin levels were significantly
reduced among subjects consuming half a grapefruit with each meal, as compared to a
placebo.
