Grapefruit juice relieves you of one fifth of the fat inside your body
Eating grapefruit juice while eating fatty meals helps to lose weight by eliminating a fifth of the fat.
Scientists have discovered that drinking grapefruit juice with healthy duties keeps the blood sugar levels under control without using drugs, while nutritionists advise to rely on it as part of a balanced diet.
The University of California-Berkeley professor Joseph Napoli said that 'the team is looking for all means of nutrition, and is building its results on solid experiments', noting that 'there are more studies that confirm the health characteristics of grapefruit juice.'
The grapefruit diet is called a 'Hollywood diet' and dates back to 1930, and it has famous fans including singer Kylie Minogue.
The diet involves the presence of grapefruit or its juice with every meal, while calories are reduced.
The researchers found that when feeding mice with fatty foods for three months, those mice that drank grapefruit juice lost weight by up to 18% more than the group of mice that drank water with meals, and the rate of 'insulin' and sugar in the blood of the mice became less, though From eating the same number of calories, and practicing the same exercises in the two categories.
Grapefruit juice is good for controlling insulin, and it is also widely used in metformin diabetes.
The British Dietitian Association revealed, 'We now need a fruit to be thoroughly examined in humans, in order to see if it can help lose weight and stop obesity and diabetes growing.'
'Until then, it is too early for people to try grapefruit diets,' said Society spokesperson Mariette Abrahams, stating that 'grapefruit should be part of a healthy, balanced diet, but it should not be the basis of the diet.'
