grapefruit diet

Citrus-based weight plan

A grapefruit diet is any of several fad diets built around eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice before meals, based on the unproven claim that grapefruit contains fat-burning enzymes.

The concept dates to the 1930s and resurfaces periodically under names like the Hollywood Diet.

These diets typically promise rapid weight loss through severe calorie restriction rather than any special property of the fruit.
