‘There are about 400 compounds in citrus,’ he said. ‘So we need to find out which compound in citrus caused this.’

Patil suspects ‘limonoid,’a natural citrus compound, which has been increasingly studied for its potential to prevent various human diseases. Limonoids will be the next phase of the study, but there are at least 40 different ones, Patil cautioned.

‘This study backs up our thoughts about the value of citrus,’ Patil said, noting that until researchers completely understand the interaction of grapefruit juice and certain medications, a person should ask a doctor.

‘In general, people should eat a variety of all the colors (in food) to get all of the beneficial compounds,’ Patil added. ‘And eat fresh.’
