A recent study published in the Nutrition and Metabolism Journal and conducted at Vanderbilt University found that people who consumed 1/2 a grapefruit or 1/2 a glass of grapefruit juice or water while on a low calorie diet lost weight.  Also lowering weight circumference and BMI (Body Mass Index).
