Answers:
Yes, it is from the acid in the grapefruit.. No you are not sick.. Oranges and pineapples will have the same affect.. Rinse your mouth out with 1 cap full of mouthwash, mixed with 2 caps of peroxide.. Do this a couple of times until the blister are healed.. (No water in the mixture) Always rinse your mouth or brush your teeth after eating any fruit high in acid.. Health Question & Answer
most likely the grapefruit.. it's citrus and this acid can definitely irritate the hell out of your mouth and even stomach.. i'd take a little break from them, if possible..
also, tell me you're eating other things during this diet.. among vegetables and grains, you need to be getting lots of protein to stay healthy.. your body is made of protein and depriving it of this will make you very weak.. be sure you're eating properly, even on a diet..Health Question & Answer
