The grapefruit diet has been practiced for many years now and there are a lot of myths around it. Some people are very skeptical about grapefruit’s ability to aid weight loss, while others argue that it is the most effective diet they have ever tried.

The Origins of Grapefruit Diet

According to the official website of this weight loss method "Grapefruit-Diet.Org" (accessed August 2010), The Grapefruit Diet was first introduced by Kelly D. Brownell, PhD in the 1930. It was designed as an alternative to traditional weight loss programmes that would help dieters to lose larger amount of weight in a considerably shorter period of time.

There are so many different versions of the grapefruit diet available today, that it becomes increasingly difficult to say which one of them is the diet plan originally offered by Brownell. However, there is one single idea behind each of these diet plans – in order to lose weight you should eat half a grapefruit before every meal in order to increase the metabolism, reduce insulin levels and encourage weight loss.
