Perhaps I wanted something sweet and citrusy. Distinctions like this, in such minor but also in more important ways, make us aware of how we are. shaping our days.

I had heard about some of this before from Dave Flockhart, who had done some of the research. While exploring the toxicity of Seldane, Flockhart had discovered that taking it with grapefruit juice dramatically increased blood levels of the antihistamine; so high, Graedon said, "that it could cause death. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Flockhart had told me that after doing that work, he believed that doctors should always warn their patients never to take any drugs with grapefruit juice, because it was too easy to accidentally overdose yourself even with standard doses. (Something in the juice inhibited the Cytochrome P450 system in the liver, Flockhart's research passion, so drugs stayed in the body much longer than normal.) At the same time, he and others at Georgetown were quietly experimenting with using the grapefruit juice effect to lower the required dose of extremely expensive drugs. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Still, too much of any juice—particularly orange and grapefruit juice—can be harmful. Juices can increase the acidity of the intestine and then the body. Their high potassium content can drastically increase the activation and presence of histamine. This will signal undue stress to the body, and a crisis water-rationing state will develop.
The physical growth of the body of a child is an adaptive response to the stresses and demands placed on it. It grows as a result of this stress, and histamine's activities are an essential part of the process. |

It's not an unlikely scenario. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Some fruits, such as raw apples and grapefruit, are not on this list. These fruits are exceptions because they are primarily made up of fructose rather than glucose, so they do not raise your blood glucose and insulin levels. They can be considered rectangle foods when eaten in their raw, unprocessed state. Processing changes their structure, however, so apple or grapefruit juice and applesauce are still listed here and must be linked with protein. We will discuss this further in the section on glycemic response on page 72. |

See book keywords and concepts |  For example, a few years ago it was discovered that grapefruit juice affects the liver enzyme system that metabolizes certain drugs. The effect is strong enough that sensitive people can overdose on the prescription drugs if they are frequently taken in combination with grapefruit juice. Since that discovery, researchers have learned that substances in broccoli, cauliflower, wheat, corn, coffee, tea, and tobacco also affect this liver enzyme system. There are certainly many other discoveries to be made in this emerging science, and some of these may involve herbs or nutritional supplements. |
