Hi Sandy,

Yes the so called Mayo Clinic Diet actually has nothing to do with the Mayo Clinic.

From what I can gather, it is very similar to Atkins or Protein Power with the addition of grapefruit at every meal.

¼ cup of grapefuit juice will give you about 5 carbs. I guess it's up to you whether you wish to "spend" 15 carbs on your juice. Personally I'd rather use those carbs on vegies which are going to not only be way more filling but also give you much more nutritionally.

HTH
