My LLMD put me on grapefruit fruit extract "for the cysts" (I don't know if the seeds are included with that extract).
Does grapefruit bust the cyst or kill it? And has anyone else used the fruit rather than the seed? All I ever read about is the seeds being used.
I don't have an appt for awhile, and it's hard to ask questions like this thru his receptionist. I wonder if there's a mistake here, and I should be on grapefruit seed extract.
Has anyone used grapefruit extract for cysts?

My doc just gave me citricidal for cysts she said, on the label it says extract of grapefruit, although she called it grapefruit seed extract. -- so I'm assuming this is right.

Doesn't grapefruit interact with some antibitoics? Does the extract work differently?

Last I heard, they (brorson et al.) had concluded that it was only citricidal's toxic preservative that had an effect on the cysts.Has anyone heard differently recently?
