In the years since its discovery, grapefruit seed extract has been tested and validated by the FDA, USDA, the Pasteur Institute in France, and numerous physicians. The active ingredient of grapefruit seed extract is non-toxic and is synthesized from the seed and pulp of certified organically grown grapefruit.
Grapefruit seed extract is a strong disinfectant for a wide range range of microbes. It will also kill bad bacteria in the intestines, but not harm the good ones. One in a while we take it internally (one or two drops in a glass of water) when we feel that a "buggie" is bothering us. Sometimes I gargle with it for a sore throat and sometimes I use it just to clean my mouth as bacteria offer linger in the mouth. It can also be used on the skin.
We use it mostly to disinfect veggies. The veggies are placed in a bowl of water, with 2 or 3 drops of grapefruit seed extract.
