Reply from Amber, Age 18 - 01/12/04 - IP#: 4.62.229.xxx Grapefruit speeds up your metabolism so it is good to include it in your diet every now and then but the citric acid that is in it eats your stomach up if you have it all the time. If you have ever had an Upper GI done on your stomach (thats when you swallow like a 1/2 a gallon of Barium - which is REALLY thick and nasty and they take X-Rays of your stomach) you would do anything not to have to drink it again. By drinking things that destroy the lining of your stomach, you will have to have an Upper GI eventually. Trust me - it is not worth it.
