Here Are the Benefits of Grapefruit
Pomelo fruit, or better known as grapefruit in Indonesia, generally has a larger size than other citrus fruits. Well, not only is the size larger, it turns out that grapefruit also has a petin content that can lower cholesterol levels. Well, if you want more complete information, continue reading my explanation below.
Pomelo or citrus grandis tenmasema, is one type of fruit that is quite popular among Indonesian people. Although often called grapefruit, this orange does not actually originate from the Island of the Gods.
Pomelo grows well in Southeast Asia. The flesh of the fruit is fresh and contains a lot of water, it can be eaten directly after being peeled. If eaten directly regularly, the vitamin A content, as well as potassium in pomelo, can balance electrolytes in the body.
Not only that, my friend, there are still several benefits of this pomelo fruit.
Moisturizes The Skin
Who doesn't want to have healthy and soft skin? Surely it is everyone's dream. However, excessive exposure to sunlight can have bad effects on the skin. Not only does it cause dry skin, the effects of sunlight can also cause premature aging, wrinkles, and loss of skin elasticity. If your skin is dry, rough or dull, immediately treat it naturally. Of course, the results will be better, although it takes a long time. Well, I have a natural concoction to soften the skin with pomelo. Prepare your notes.
Ingredients Needed Are:
Pomelo fruit flesh
Olive oil
Banana
Papaya
And water
How To Make It:
Peel the banana
Cut into several pieces
Then cut the papaya and put it in a blender
Next, cut the pomelo fruit flesh into several pieces, so that it is easy to crush when blended
Add a little water
Blend until smooth
Pour into a bowl, then add two tablespoons of olive oil, stir until evenly distributed
Done.
Good luck trying it at home.
The high content of amino acids and vitamin C in grapefruit makes many skin beauty experts use this fruit as a skin care ingredient.
Apply enough to the skin evenly, then let stand for approximately 15 minutes, then wash with a warm towel.
Grapefruit also contains spernatin which is beneficial for the body. Spernatin is a substance that can protect skin cells from the aging process and damage.
Consuming this fruit directly can also nourish your skin from within.
Welcome to beautiful, soft and healthy skin.
Lowering Cholesterol Levels
Friends, did you know that cholesterol is actually needed by the body to build cell walls and also plays a role in making hormones.
Yes, cholesterol is a metabolite that has a sterol fat content that can be found in cell membranes. However, what often becomes a problem is cholesterol levels that exceed normal limits and have an impact on chronic diseases.
Cholesterol levels in the body can increase if you do not pay attention to the food intake you consume every day.
Well, to avoid this from happening, limit the sources of food rich in cholesterol entering the body, and exercise regularly.
In addition, I have a natural recipe to accompany your daily menu. Want to know
how?
First, note down the ingredients:
First, we need one peeled grapefruit or pomelo

Grapefruit contains more enzymes than other types of oranges. It is believed to be able to lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease. Drink the concoction while it is warm twice a day regularly. Stay healthy with natural ingredients without side effects. Good luck, hopefully successful.
Additional Information, Grapefruit Peel to Repel Mosquitoes
In addition to being beneficial for health, you can also use pomelo fruit to repel mosquitoes. When you are in your yard or relaxing, but are annoyed by naughty mosquitoes.
You can use grapefruit peel to repel them. It's easy, just rub the grapefruit peel on your skin until the smell comes out. Because mosquitoes don't like the distinctive citrus aroma.
Remember, my friend, if you buy grapefruit, don't just throw away the peel.
Okay, that's all the information about grapefruit, hopefully it will be useful for all readers.
