has anyone heard of the grapefruit diet?

Answer 1

Yes it is a fasting diet (a type of diet everyone in the world should be on! We eat wayyy too much, especially Americans), anyway, rant aside...

The idea is that grapefruit is the only thing you eat and cleanses the system. It's also known as the Hollywood Diet. Be safe--

PS. If you want to lose a ton of weight, I've seen Atkins work on people.

Answer 2

***Warning*** Yes there is a grapefruit diet but grapefruit interacts with a lot of medications and over the counter medications. I would suggest discussing this diet with your doctor first before doing it. Better be safe than sorry.

Answer 3

Yes and it is silly. It is based on the myth that grapefruit juice will somehow dissolve the fat or carbs. But it doesn't work that way. The acid in your stomach alone is stronger than juice, so the whole concept is bogus.

Answer 4
