Rancho del Sol Organic Grapefruit Rancho del Sol grapefruit is an alkalizing fruit that is an excellent choice for losing acidic weight. Grapefruit is also low in sugars (only 7 gram per 100 grams) and low in calories 42 per 100 grams but on other hand is packed with 2 grams per fiber for 100 grams of grapefruit. One small grapefruit (120 grams) has a glycemic index or acid index of 25 which is low. The fiber in grapefruit is excellent for adsorbing and absorbing metabolic and dietary acids. A glass of grapefruit juice every morning could help you lose weight, according to Canadian research that has identified a fat-burning molecule in the fruit called naringenin. Naringenin is a flavonoid in grapefruit which helps to balance out blood sugar levels and prevent metabolic syndrome, a pre-diabetic condition associated with weight gain around the waist. Scientists at the University of Western Ontario found it worked by programming the liver to burn up excess fat, rather than store it. According to a study at the University of California showed that drinking grapefruit juice before each meal, obese people lost 31/2-10lb over three months through this alone.
