Either way, they can make you look more tired and older than you really are. One of the biggest reasons people get bags under their eyes is because their parents have them. It's in your genes, and -- aside from plastic surgery -- there's not much that can be done about it.

If you're a grapefruit lover, reap the benefits of this super-nutritious fruit by enjoying a serving before meals. A half grapefruit or a glass of grapefruit juice before meals may help fill you up, so you'll eat fewer calories at meals and potentially lose weight.
But exactly how much juice is in a grapefruit anyway? And how many sections are in a grapefruit? In order to figure out how much juice and sections are in a grapefruit we selected a medium grapefruit, measuring about 5 inches (12.5 cm) wide and weighing a generous 1 pound for our test sample. On average, you can squeeze 1 cup of juice from 1 grapefruit and will find 12 fruit sections. Although used less often than an orange, lemon or lime, 1 grapefruit gives about 3 tablespoons of zest.
