Tips:
1. The best choice for grapefruit is Huyou. Although it is small, the skin is golden in color and the flesh is fresh and tender. It has the highest Vc content in grapefruit.
2. There is usually a layer of wax on the surface of grapefruit, which should be washed thoroughly by rubbing with salt.
3. Make tea with warm water, or eat it directly as jam.
4. Eating too much pomelo at one time will not only damage the liver, but also cause other adverse reactions and even poisoning.
