Weight loss:  Grapefruits contain fiber which helps with regular digestion, helping with eight loss, and also contain no fat.  Fat burning enzymes are also found in this fruit which alter insulin levels in the body, therefore stimulating metabolic changes.

Kidneys:  D-limonene has been shown to prevent the formation of and also dissolve kidney stones.  Drinking grapefruit juice regularly helps to alkalize the urin, which lowers the chances of these stones forming and promotes overall kidney health.
