What is Grapefruit?

Grapefruit is a citrus fruit known for its refreshing taste, juicy pulp, and rich nutritional profile. It is a natural source of vitamin C, antioxidants, dietary fiber, and beneficial plant compounds that support immunity, heart health, and metabolism. Grapefruit is widely consumed as fresh fruit and juice and is also processed into concentrates, extracts, essential oils, and flavoring ingredients. Its slightly bitter yet tangy flavor makes it popular in beverages, health foods, cosmetics, and nutraceutical formulations, driving steady demand across fresh and processed fruit markets worldwide.
