1. Grapefruit: The grapefruit diet is not a myth. Researchers at Scripps Clinic found that participants who ate half a grapefruit with each meal in a 12-week period lost an average of 3.6 pounds.

The study indicates that the unique chemical properties in this vitamin C-packed citrus fruit reduce insulin levels, which promotes weight loss.

NOTE: If you are taking medication, check with your doctor about any potentially adverse interactions with grapefruit.

If you take a cholesterol lowering drug for high cholesterol, a half a grapefruit is a definite no-no. Check the medication's notes.
