well I want to start this diet, but my mom says that grapefruit can interfere with my acne medication (minocycline), and I pay over a 1$ a day for 1 pill and yea.. you get the point.. i have bad acne...
so I don't care about taste or anything like that, but what can I replace it with? oranges?
will the diet still work if im having proper workout, + proper supplementation?
or is grapefruit needed?

as said oranges have the next highest lvels of narigin in the fruit. but not as high.
if your not competing then it should be ok. atleast imoThe Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and hear all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard.

in the food lists in the back of the book it says the serving sizes paired with how many carbs/protein/fat its worth.
in this case... 6.5Oz grapefruit = 15G carb where as 3.5Oz orange = 15G of carb. so if you wanted 15G of carb from that source (orange) then no.. you would not increase the serving sizeThe Iron never lies to you.
