Sounds like the so called Mayo Clinic Diet (which definitely was never endorsed by the Mayo Clinic!).
Why would anyone bother with all that grapefruit? Yes, you can have grapefruit on some low carb plans, but there is nothing to be gained by having it at every meal. Grapefruit has no magical, mystical fat burning effect.
And, as Robert rightly points out, grapefruit can inhibit the effect of some medications.
So I would have to also agree with Mr Fletcher - go on it if you wish, but omit the grapefruit. Of course, then you are just following a plan very similar to Atkins.
