Grapefruit Diet
What Is The Grapefruit Diet?


Hollywood loved the grapefruit diet. It first came to fame in the 1930's when many stars used it. It became part of xerox lore, faxed from machine to machine, in the 1970's. The Mayo Clinic, which is often credited as the diet's creator, claims to have nothing to do with the unhealthy diet.


The grapefruit diet is essentially like the Atkins diet with the addition of a grapefruit before each meal. There was no cheating on this diet – only three meals a day and no in between meals snacks. The diet claimed that people could lose 10 pounds in 10 days, or 5 pounds in five days. As wild as that sounds, this is wilder – the diet claimed someone might not lose weight for 9 days, but then suddenly drop 10 pounds in the last day. The claim that grapefruit contains enzymes that burn fat has never been proven.

Researchers showed that the diet may work in a 2004 study. Eating ½ grapefruit prior to meals helped people in the study lose 3.6 pounds in twelve weeks. People drinking the same serving size of grapefruit juice lost slightly less weight. Many of the participants lost more than 10 pounds in 12 weeks. Researchers attributed the weight loss to decreased insulin levels caused by eating grapefruit. But the weight loss may have also been due to increased levels of exercise.


Here's a typical grapefruit diet:


- Eight 8 ounce glasses of water each day, this is a must.

- Stop eating when full.

- Eat everything listed for each meal, do not skip foods, they are specifically formulated to help burn fat.

- Grapefruit is a catalyst that starts fat burning. Do not change the amount of grapefruit.

- Drink only up to 1 cup of coffee at meals.

- No snacking.

- Butter is OK.

- No starches or sweets can be eaten.

- Do eat meats and vegetables.

- Eat until full in order to maximize weight loss.



- Follow the diet for 12 days, skip two days, then start again.

- Grapefruit comes before every meal - ½ fruit or 18 ounces of the juice.



Now you can go try the grapefruit diet.
