Regarding grapefruit juice I also discovered when I was doing a colon cleanse and feeling poorly from the toxins being released that it helped my body clear out the toxins. Then learned from doing research it has an enzyme that helps the liver to detox the blood. It worked.

Antonio, I agree with you... US grown grapefruits are, or appear to be, from a different planet, because US citrus farmers have a lot more freedom as to spraying prescription drugs onto their citrus trees.I'm saying this, A) because the juice of my grapefruit was no help to me, and B) because it had been imported from South Africa, by Tesco, C) all imports to the EU are regulated by the EFSA, and D) the EFSA has a lot of restrictions.
In other words, it is very likely that the active ingredient of the "grapefruit juice" is NOT the "grapefruit juice", but the unidentified prescription drug, or drugs, that are routinely sprayed onto those grapefruit trees.
