A Pomegranate a Day May Keep All the Doctors Away

The pomegranate has become popular over the last decade as scientists and nutritional experts have begun to unlock the amazing health benefits that lie within its red skin.  These benefits do not come without a fight as the pomegranate is one of the hardest fruits to actually peel.  The trick to releasing the magic seeds is to cut the pomegranate in half and place it into a large bowl of cool water.  While floating in the bowl, began to peel out the seeds.  All of the white matter will float to the top while the red fruit will sink to the bottom.  After all the fruit has been plucked, simply scoop out the floating white center and pour the remainder through a strainer.  The red seeds will be cool, crisp and easy to eat.  Some of the amazing health benefits of eating a pomegranate include:
  • Reduce the risk of heart disease
  • Reduce cholesterol
  • Combat cell damage
  • Increase your anti-oxidants, which fight the free radicals you have may floating around in your body
  • Full of B vitamins
  • Pomegranate seeds contain anti-inflammatory properties
