Is grapefruit good for cleansing?
Grapefruit Can Help You Detox Your Body. Grapefruit is full of healthy juice – Grapefruits and other citrus fruits like oranges and tangerines are the ideal food for a detox diet. The sugars in the fruit juice are all natural and are easy for your body to break down for fuel.
Can you freeze grapefruit for smoothies?
Freeze grapefruit sections in a single layer on parchment paper. Frozen grapefruit can be eaten right out of the freezer, tossed in water for a fruit ice cube, used in smoothies, or thawed and eaten later
Is it okay to eat grapefruit everyday?
While the pith of grapefruit can have more of a bitter taste than say, oranges, it’s worth eating along with the fruit. Fiber is a good thing, and can help lower blood sugar, cholesterol, and possibly even colon cancer risk

I love my pink grapefruit! It helps get rid of my acid stomach at first bite. Counter-intuitive but true. Thanks so much for posting this recipe. As much as I love pink grapefruit & smoothies I never thought to combine them. I can't wait to try this tomorrow for breakfast!
