Why I Drink Grapefruit Juice?

Because I've already already wrote about my grapefruit juice diet, and about my weight loss with juicing program, I decide to write also about why I drink grapefruit juice and what are other benefits of it.

Grapefruit juice is nothing but just a fruit juice, extracted out of grapefruit. Vitamin C content in the grapefruit is considerably high and that is why it is one of the most popular fruits of all time. Although grapefruits resemble oranges, they are actually larger in size and are the youngest member of the citrus family. The reason behind this is that grapefruits are cross breeds of oranges and pomelo.

Grapefruit doesn't only contain vitamin C which is commonly known to be protective against cold or flu. It is not just one nutrient that helps prevent a certain disease, but rather the combination of several ingredients in it that does the trick. This is the kind of nutritional power that we can find only in the way God makes our natural food.

This juicy fruit contains citric acid, natural sugars, and essential oils like limonene, pinene and citral. It has high amounts of vitamin C, and smaller amounts of vitamin A, B complex, E and K.
