Connecting Grapefruit and Health
Not only are grapefruits tasty and healthy to eat, they have many other uses. The juice can be extracted and chilled or frozen. The peel of grapefruits can be candied and is an important source of pectin which is used for the preservation of other fruits. Add sections of grapefruit to sweeten your salads or salsas! Grapefruit is rich in nutrition and has a great impact on Texas Agriculture!
