** Note to Diabetics: Although grapefruit has positive effects on diabetes, it can interact with medications and lead to serious health consequences. Grapefruit contains compounds that block enzymes' ability to break down certain medications. This leads to medications building up to dangerous levels in the blood, according to the Mayo Clinic website. Consult your doctor before eating grapefruit.
