Grapefruit extract
Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) extract is obtained from the pulp, seeds and membranes of grapefruits. It’s a concentrated source of citrus flavonoids and other healthy nutrients. It has long been used as an alternative remedy for a number of health conditions, including candida infections.
The grapefruit extract is generally considered safe to use for most people, both in the short and long term.
Grapefruit is a great food to include in a balanced diet. This fruit is rich in vitamin C, contains enzymes that stimulate digestion and it’s high in nutrients but low in calories. In fact, it’s one of the lowest-calorie fruits.
Grapefruit provides a decent amount of fiber, in addition to more than 15 beneficial vitamins and minerals.
About 20% of women normally have Candida (a type of fungus) in the vagina without having any symptoms.
