Grapefruit (Pink and Red and White) (0.5 Medium (Approx 4 Inches Dia))

Keep the serving modest: try half of a whole grapefruit rather than a large fruit or multiple servings at once.

Eat grapefruit segments whole instead of drinking grapefruit juice, and avoid adding sugar, honey, or sweetened toppings.

Pair it with protein and fat, such as plain Greek yogurt, eggs, cottage cheese, or a small handful of nuts, to slow digestion.

Add fiber-rich accompaniments such as chia seeds, ground flaxseed, or oats, and choose unsweetened versions.

Have grapefruit as part of a balanced meal rather than by itself, and take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating if appropriate for you.

Review grapefruit interactions with your pharmacist or clinician if you use prescription medicines, since grapefruit can change the effects of several medications.
