Grapefruit ( Pink or White)

Grapefruit is a tropical citrus fruit known for its sweet yet tart taste and refreshing juicy pulp (roughly 88% of the fruit total weight is water). It is rich in nutrients, antioxidants and fibre.

Citric acid is an organic acid found in grapefruit that may be effective in preventing the development of the most common type of kidney stone (called calcium oxalate stones), by binding with calcium in the kidneys and flushing toxins out of our body. Also, citric acid has the ability to increase the volume and pH of urine, producing an environment that is less favorable to the formation of kidney stones.

Red and white grapefruit have nearly identical nutrition, including the amount of sugar. The only substantial difference is that Red grapefruit have 25x more vitamin A than white ones.
