But these results，based on controlled experiments，warrant further study of the potential healthpromoting properties of grapefruit juice.”The researchers found that when the mice were fed fatty food for three months，those given grapefruit juice to drink gained up to 18 percent less weight than those given water.They also had lower blood sugar and insulin levelsdespite eating the same number of calories and doing the same amount of exercise as the mice who drank water.

The name is thought to have come about because these sharks are white in one circumstance when they are lying dead on the deck of a boat.It would be more proper to call this species the “black shark”They have a dark upper surface，which means their prey(猎物) are difficult to spot them approaching from the dark depths.Speaking of prey，they have been recorded dining out on a wide range of species，including whales，squid(鱿鱼)，turtles and occasionally penguins.“If you make a list of everything thats been found in a white sharks stomach，youd get a variety of things，” says marine biologist George Burgess of the University of Florida in Gainesville.But whats clear is that their tastes change as they age.“They are almost just fisheaters until they are 7，8，9 feet long，” says Burgess.“As they get bigger，they will begin to start eating mammal prey if they get the opportunity.”These older sharks prefer seals，sea lions and walruses.When they strike from below，at speed，white sharks can clear the surface by as much as 3 m.To locate their prey，white sharks use almost every trick in the book.“They have a series of senses，” says Burgess.In a 1963 study，researchers hung a speaker over the edge of their boat off Miami to see if they could attract sharks with sound.No great white sharks were spotted in this study，but its reasonable to assume they have good hearing too.As a great white shark gets closer to its prey，its sense of smell begins to kick in.A study of the brains of different species of sharks shows t
