Our Position

If you put yourself on the Grapefruit Diet we strongly urge you to do the following:

• We are concerned about the high fat protein sources recommended in the grapefruit diet, replace with low fat meats in place of their recommendations.
• Drink at least 5 glass of our supplement fruit drinks (75g protein only 350 calories for the day) with the recommended water each day to ensure you are getting a low fat protein source with the vitamins and minerals needed. We even have a Grapefruit protein drink mix!
• See your local doctor first before starting the grapefruit diet
• Maintain a minimum 1200 calorie to 1500 calorie intake per day
  
  

Grapefruit Diet Full Review

One of the diets most frequently asked about by visitors to our web site is the “Grapefruit Diet”. Although we do not support the use of fad diets (for Dr. Padla's approach see our Sample Diet), the overwhelming number of requests for information about the grapefruit diet compelled me to provide a short review of this diet plan.

Throughout the years one myth that has continually gained more and more attention, is that grapefruit contains magical “fat burning” properties. I searched the web for scientific data to support this claim. To tell you the truth, I actually hoped my skepticism was unfounded. How great would it be to find out I could eat two to three grapefruits each day, and forget about spending hours in the gym each week. To my dismay, I found exactly what I expected. There is absolutely no scientific proof to back up the claims made by the author of the Grapefruit Diet. The truth of the matter is there are no valid studies which clearly support the diet use. For the most part, there are a vast number of web sites devoted to either promoting the “magical” benefits of the this diet or warning against its use. I will summarize the basic principles of the grapefruit diet in the next page.
