What meds does grapefruit interact with?
Dextrometorphan should not be taken with Grapefruit as you will probably get hallucinations. Edit: If you are taking normal doses of dextrometorphan and you do not have a rare sensitivity to it (because of an enzyme in your liver, or lack thereof), then grapefruit will have no effect whatsoever. As a matter of fact the relation between eating grapefruit and the effectiveness of dextrometorphan has not been successfully demonstrated. The problem with grapefruit-drug interactions is that sulfur-compounds in grapefruit juice may affect the way many meds are metabolized in the liver. This involves many antihypertensive and cholesterol-lowering agents and should probably be avoided.

Does soda pop reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills?
No. It does not. Nor will it ever. That is a complete myth. The only ones you need to worry about, are ones like Fresca which contain REAL grapefruit juice. Grapefruit is known to interact with many drugs, including birth control. Grapefruit slows down your body's ability to eliminate the estrogen from your pills which leaves it circulating in your system longer which then greatly increases all of the risks that birth control carries. You can still drink it, (I do) but sparingly and not often.

Is the Grapefruit Diet the Answer?
Although grapefruits are healthy nutritious fruits that are great to consume, they will not help you lose weight. The grapefruit diet has been a popular diet for years as a start to the day, and supporters say that eating a grapefruit for a meal can curb your hunger. Unfortunately, grapefruits have no special properties to burn fat or reduce weight. They are however, very tasty and can be used in a weight loss attempt if you replace your snack or dessert with a grapefruit half. Sprinkle it with a no calorie sweetener like Splenda for a tasty treat instead of brownies or ice cream.
