I’m SO into bioflavonoids, flavonoids, flavalones, and the many other names these antioxidants compounds fall under. This post is about healing properties that act like medicine from this food.

Grapefruit has such powerful compounds that it will COMPETE with some functions of certain medications. I don’t think it’s any coincidence that this food can be used as medicine, but if you’re on a specific medicine, you’ll need to take it several hours apart of any grapefruit. Here are a few common medications that compete with grapefruit for absorption:
💊Cholesterol lowering meds such as statins - (Lipitor)
💊Allergy meds like fexofenadine (Allegra)
💊Blood pressure meds (like Procardia)
💊Corticosteriod meds like budesonide (a IBD med)
....this list is not exclusive! Always check with your medical doctor first, and that’s not me 😘💁🏼‍♀️.
