• The Grapefruit Diet is a short-term diet used for fast weight loss. The diet consists of eating half a grapefruit or drinking eight ounces of unsweetened grapefruit juice before every meal.

  The Grapefruit Diet has been around since the 1930s. It was once believed that the enzymes found in grapefruit could burn away fat. This theory has since been disproved. WebMD: Souring on the Grapefruit Diet
