Citrus Fruit for Weight Loss

[nattylou]

Has anyone heard anything about this?

There is a new "fad" diet, in which you eat 1/2 a grapefruit before each meal as it helps to breaks down fat.

There are also herbal and fruit remedies which work on the same principle. One particular one uses an enzyme which is found in high concentrate in Kiwi fruit.

Does anyone have any further information?

info Here I had a quick read of the pros and cons and it looks a pile of pants to me, especially more so as I don't really like grapefuit quotes like 'gets boring' 'Is not healthy, shocks your system, and does not provide long-term results' and 'Takes willpower and determination. It is torture' don't sound like much fun to me and would probably be really hard to stick to.
