Something that I have not had in a while is grapefruit. It
was never my favorite type of fruit, but my mom used to eat them all the time
and I would have some every now and then. It turns out, though, that grapefruit
can actually be really healthy and is great for a balanced diet.
Research has been done that shows grapefruit being able to
help combat cancer. MedicalNewsToday said, “As an
excellent source of the strong antioxidant vitamin C as well as other antioxidants,
grapefruit can help combat the formation of free radicals known to cause cancer.” This is a
simple way to try to help prevent that awful disease. Click here to read more.
Grapefruit can also help with indigestion and
diabetes. Organicfact.net explains that when helping with indigestion, the
fiber and vegetative pulp in grapefruit adds bulk to the bowels and regulates
your excretory schedule. For diabetes, the fruit can help regulate the flow of
sugar in the body. To read more about what grapefruit can do, click here.
On the scientific side, grapefruit can improve
heart health and reduce the risk of kidney stones. “The
most common type of kidney stones is calcium oxalate stones. Citric acid, an
organic acid found in grapefruit, may be effective at preventing them by
binding with calcium in the kidneys and flushing it out of the body,” authoritynutrition.com
said. Read the rest of the article here.
