Re: [Everything doTERRA] Grapefruit Oil and Blood Pressure Medication

Hi Lori,
 
I have attached a post that Tamalu gave on this subject below that I think will help you. Its also good to know that our citrus oils are cold pressed from the rine and so they don't come from the fruit. The fruit is what needs to be avoided with meds. Hope that helps.

"I have been doing some research on grapefruit, as there has once again been mention of concern with grapefruit oil and meds.  The compound naringen, found in the fruit of grapefruit, which causes problems with prescription meds by interfering with or amplifying the body's ability to absorb the drugs, is not present in grapefruit oil.  You may still choose to avoid taking grapefruit oil internally, but with a little research, you will find that we are in a whole new playing field!"
Love, Tamalu

Hi Folks,
I'm pretty sure that I already know the answer to this question but I
just want some back up.  My neighbor takes Blood Pressure Meds and
said that she can't have anything with grapefruit in it.  (She wants
to try the Slim and Sassy but it has Grapefruit Oil in it and she's
scared).  Thanks in advance for your input.
Lori
