Gropefruit can help with weight loss. It has a compound called nangarin that helps. It's not going to be a magic bullet though. You still have to exercise and reduce calories.
Also, make sure you get enough calcium and chromium. And have a small portion of protein with every meal. It helps keep blood sugar stable.

I have never heard that one before but I wouldnt recommend it. Grapefruit juice is very acidicy and will eat away the lining of your stomach and asophogas if you drink it that often. Dont drink more than one 4 ounce glass per day

i heard the same thing ,, but i will tell you what i did to lose 25lbs in 4 months, nurtigrain bars and ceral bars instead of hersey, i also ate a lot of salads really big ones and it dont matter too much what you put in them,, soups are a good thing too, ceral is good, and half of what you normally eat for dinner if you are still hungery eat a salad with it.. pretzel instead of chips, no butter popcorn you can get the molly mcbutter to put on it instead, drink plently of water it washes out the toxins if you like to bike ride that would be great .. me and my daughter just took up tennis.. or you just turn on the stero and dance a bit before you take your shower and go to bed

No I don't believe it does. I would say consult your doctor and ask them what you could drink or take to help break down and digest your foods better.
