Okay, I was okay with grapefruit interfering with certain prescription medications. That wasn't enough for me to give up one of my favorite fruits... but now the British Journal of Cancer reports that grapefruit potentially raises breast cancer risk in post-menopausal women. (more info here: http://www.thatsfit.com/2008/01/23/grapefruit-consumption-risking-business-for-some/) What's next? Apples elevating colon-cancer risk?
Since critics of the study say the risk could actually be related to pesticides present in the grapefruit, I'm not sure where this leaves me - risk cancer for one of my favorite fruits or not?
