What's the best citrus, and why is it grapefruit?

>> No.5735903

It's the best because only sophisticated patricians appreciate it.

The easiest way to spot a pleb is if a person doesn't like them.

Grapefruit, because it has greater depth of flavor, and there is more of it to enjoy.

Public Service Announcement: If any of you or your loved ones are on prescription meds, be sure to ask your doctor if grapefruit and/or its juice is okay. Many meds interact badly, even deadly, with grapefruit.

Awesome, on the lively and healthy get to enjoy this spectacular fruit. Plebs and the sickly need not apply.

Just to explain further, this is because it radically alters the rate your body can absorb certain chemicals at, so it's not harmful on its own but seriously screws with your dosages.

Does anyone know if artificially grapefruit flavored stuff has the same problem?

>> No.5736546

>>5736493
Grapefruit contains chemicals that inhibit certain liver enzymes, which changes the way your body metabolizes certain drugs. Sometimes the results are dangerous, sometimes it just changes the strength or length of the effects of the drug.

So far as I know artificial grapefruit flavoring should not have this issue, but I've never actually encountered anything with an artificial grapefruit flavor.
