you know i always get this question about  grapefruit is it okay if i consume some  

grapefruit thinking it’s a lot different than  an orange so i’m just going to create this short  

video on this fruit grapefruit is high in vitamin  c it has citric acid so it can actually decrease  

the risk of kidney stones it has lycopene which  is good for prostate problems but one thing about  

grapefruit is that it has a certain chemical that  inhibits an enzyme in your liver which blocks the  

breakdown of medication and so the enzymes  that normally metabolize the great majority  

of drugs in your body so grapefruit inhibits that  function causing a greatly elevated concentration  

and accumulation of those drugs in fact if  you take certain medications like statins  

antidepressants high blood pressure medication and  at the same time consume one grapefruit or a glass  

of 7 ounces which comes out to a little over 200  grams you could potentially have a drug overdose  

it can be very toxic but that’s not the biggest  reason that i would recommend not consuming  

grapefruits the biggest reason is because it’s  loaded with sugar one cup which is 230 grams  

of a grapefruit that’s cut up in little slices  gives you 25 grams of carbs or 16 grams of sugar  

that is a lot of sugar now it’s slightly less than  an orange but still it’s way way too high and i do  

understand a lot of people love grapefruit but  the problem is it’s just too darn high in sugar
