does drinking grapefruit juice help burn fat?!


Question:
Answers:
this is an issue that there is a big debate about. grapefruit has alot of citric acid in it and taht can help with digestion, (supposedly) BUT mos store bought juices have added sugar. remember that grapefruit and other fruits have their own sugars that our body can digest easier than refined sugars. i had a friend that didnt drink juice but ate a grapefruit a day and said it seemed to help. but remember whatever the theory of the week is, if you work out and build muscle you will burn fat. building muscle helps with your metabolism which will help with burning fat :) and this theory has been proven time and time again. good luck

The human body is a funny thing. It's VERY ADAPTABLE for survival. So when you give it less food, the result is a slow metabolism for survival purpose. That's why it is important to take a break (but stay in control of your food intake) from your diet and focus on eating healthy, balance meals with exercise. This will prevent your metabolism from getting too slow.

Hundreds and thousands of years ago, when eating was a matter of survival, the body would protect itself by slowing down the rate it burned calories (lower metabolism) to maintain weight. In modern society, we have the opposite problem of too much food, temptation and consequent weight gain.

Our body is designed for survival and less food is a threat to it's survival. You must control a slow increase or decrease of food to successfully lose weight and keep it off. If you stop eating or skip meals, your metabolism will come to a SCREECHING HALT.

If you maintain a control and balance diet, you will lose weight but your body's metabolism will finally adapt and slow down. That's why we need to take a break from dieting. If you give up and SUDDENLY start eating
back to your pre diet intake, you may quickly gain weight because of a low metabolism.

this is why i recommend smaller ore frequent meals.
Increase Your Metabolism Through Movement/ exercise/ walking at least 30 minutes helps boost it also.
to answer you question truthfully, noone can give you an accurate # because all bodies are different.
BUT if you eat more frequently so your body doesnt go ito survival mode and excercise then you are on the right track and if you can excercise in the morning that increases your metabolism for a while. the more you raise you heartrate the more of a boost your metabolism gets.

depends wut kind cuz some is pure sugar
no.
not really running and jogging work really well though
yes, but it has to be Country Time powdered grapefruit juice, and you have to add 3 tablespoons of sugar per glass. Also, don't mix the powder with water. Mix it with Sprite instead---much better for fat burning. You'll be skinny in no time. Trust me. Would I lie?
Does it have sugar? I have no clue!
i don't know, but sitting at your computer asking yahoo questions doesn't, that's for sure
ummmmmmmm...NO!
