Grapefruit...the miracle fruit!

Grapefruit and its usefulness and benefits in weight loss cannot be overemphasized, although bitter but it is high in antioxidants, fat burning enzymes and has a high water content (any fruit with high water content is good for weight loss) and high in vitaminC, it's considered a fat-burning food that can kick-start your metabolism. It has other great benefits too. Personally, it helps me ease whenever I overeat or feel bloated. This fruit has indeed done so much for me hence my naming it "a miracle fruit in weight loss"

Grapefruit is loaded with fiber, keeping you full longer and reducing the likelihood of mindless snacking. Research has also found that eating half a grapefruit before every meal can lead to greater weight loss.

There are several benefit of grapefruit in weightloss and management. You can use it to satisfy your sweet tooth. It stabilizes blood sugar, it has compounds that can reduce insulin levels, lowers the level of insulin meaning your body can efficiently use food for energy rather than storing it as fat.
It also curbs cravings.
 


They come in red and white. Found in our Nigerian markets. You can juice, blend or eat whole.
Enjoy!
