While reading the information about one of my medicines, it said not to eat grapefruit. But it did not say why.
Creepy.

Some statin drugs to lower cholesterol, such as Zocor (simvastatin) and Lipitor (atorvastatin). Some drugs that treat high blood pressure, such as Procardia and Adalat CC (both nifedipine). Some organ-transplant rejection drugs, such as Neoral and Sandimmune capsule or oral solution (both cyclosporine.[/quote]
I am on atorvastatin!

@JoyfulSilence yeah, no kidding. I believe with some other meds citrus fruits combined can make you more photosensitive and thus more prone to sunburn. I was surprised about the kidneys and enzyme breakdown thing.

Yeah, I am taking a med now and they say avoid the sun.
To hell with that! It is spring! I am eating lunch outside. Also, I am only on the med a month, so how much harm can it do in a month?

I'd love to have grapefruit for breakfast but I'm not allowed because (apparently) it clashes with the statins I take :-(

It’s better to have protein for breakfast anyways. So run and then come home and have eggs

Half a grapefruit? Peel it like an orange and eat it that way. ;)

Wait until you accidently grab that grapefruit spoon to eat a bowl bran flakes

Running is cool and turns you into a god, grapefruit is optional.

10 min of exercise daily is all you need. more? go for it. diet is important but starving yourself for the sake of 'health' is a death spiral
