Grapefruit juice inhibits the cytochrome P450 CYP3A4 enzyme, which can affect the metabolism/absorption of a variety of drugs, increasing their bioavailability. CYP3A4 is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases that catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids, and other lipids.

Hahaha, not sure if that would be a good idea. I think it could be helpful to take gayfruit jews with anavar, though

Research has suggested that flavonoids and/or furanocoumarin present in grapefruit are the substances that act to block the enzyme in the intestines that normally metabolizes many drugs.

Some medications that interact with grapefruit juice:
-Statins (Cholesterol Lowering Drugs)
-Antihistamines: Terfenadine
-Calcium Channel Blockers (Blood Pressure Drugs):
-Anti-convulsant: Tegretol (Carbamazepine)
-Anxiolytics: Valium (Diazepam)
-Anti-depressant: Sertraline Clomipramine
-Cortico-steroids: Methylprednisolone
-Oestrogens: Ethinyl estradiol
-Anabolic Steroids: Dianabol
-Impotence Drug: Viagra

Gayfruit jews could help Diana.

Yes, it'll increase its bioavailability. Is it a good idea? Not sure. Only one way to find out I suppose

Viagra + grapefruit juice = 8 hour long erections?

Now I know why Kai was screwing the grapefruit.

So if I drink my Var + Grapefruit = stays in the system longer? Slower release?
