Grapefruit can interact with captopril (Capoten), a medication used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. Grapefruit juice may inhibit the enzyme CYP3A4, which is involved in the metabolism of various drugs, potentially leading to increased levels of captopril in the bloodstream and heightened side effects. It's advisable for patients taking captopril to avoid grapefruit and grapefruit products unless directed otherwise by their healthcare provider.

Icing sugar is a finely powdered form of sucrose, ideal for frosting and baking, while fruit sugar can affect flavor and moisture content. If you're looking for a sweetener to use in a recipe, consider the intended flavor and texture, as well as how each sugar interacts with other ingredients.
