“…In this field, various reports with grapefruit juice (GJ) both in vivo and in vitro have shown a clear antigenotoxic effect on the DNA and chromosomes damaged by mutagens with different mechanisms of action (Alvarez-González et al, 2004;Miyata et al, 2004;Razo-Aguilera et al, 2011). Besides, in the area of carcinogenesis, in vitro studies conducted on MCF-7 human breast cancer cells, or in Caco-2 and HL-60 cells support the idea that components of grapefruit (limonin and naringenin) have apoptotic activity that limits the growing of cancerous cells; also, the capacity to inhibit the development of cancer by grapefruit or because the activity of specific constituents have also been suggested in in vitro studies, as well as at the in vivo initiation or post-initiation stages (So et al, 1996;Tian et al, 2001;Kanno et al, 2005;Vanamala et al, 2006;Miller et al, 2008;Hwang et al, 2010). The findings obtained in these studies are in close agreement with the general suggestion that the consumption of fruits and vegetables reduces the risk of colon cancer (Koushik et al, 2007).…”
