Yellow grapefruit is also known as white grapefruit because of the very light colour of its pulp and its double skin, which is rich in essential oils.
This fruit, not as sweet as the orange, is characterised by its bitter taste that comes from the membrane protecting the different segments, the removal of which gives the fruit a much more pleasant taste.
Grapefruit from Sicily is rich in vitamins, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and flavonoids such as naringenin and limonene, which give the fruit antioxidant and anti-tumour properties.
It stimulates the digestive system and is useful for those with digestive problems: it stimulates the production of digestive enzymes, without making the stomach too acidic.
It has a fat burning action and, being rich in fibre, is nutritious and filling.
It helps the liver to eliminate waste.
Be aware that grapefruit can react with pharmaceutical drugs!
