Years ago my father lost over 40 pounds while drinking grapefruie juice with his evening meal only. He started with 4 ounces a day and increased it to 16 ounces. This eventually became his evening meal. As he ate heartily for breakfast and lunch, he was still well nourished.

I drink grapefruit juice with the same results. One benefit I find is that I feel it curbs my appetite so that I don't eat other foods which might add to my weight.

[edit] Dr Fujioka

The section on Dr Fujioka should either cite where the study was published, or should be removed. Jeremymiles 05:27, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

I've cited an article discussing the study, and reworded the entire paragraph, as it was plagiarized from the cited reference. 69.177.232.182 (talk) 21:39, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Grapefruit + Cancer

This diet should not be tried because regular eating of grapefruit increases risk of breast cancer in women - Is this true???? YokoIrl 12:00, 09 August 2007 (GMT)

[edit] Mayo diet

I heard it was called the Mayo Diet because it forbids eating mayonnaise. However, I seem to be coming across a lot of sources that may not be reliable. Has anyone found a reliable source for this, or is it just hearsay? --72.54.44.153 (talk) 16:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
