Pomegranate

[Guest guest]

Hi folks:

We have previously discussed the (possibly extraordinary) benefits of

pomegranates ............. enormous anti-oxidant capacity etc..

Well yesterday I tripped over: " Not from concentrate, 100%

pomegranate juice, no water added, pasteurized, with potassium

sorbate added [preservative] " .

It comes from Azerbaijan and is not a product of any producer I have

heard of previously. The producer's name appears to be " Bullur " . It

costs about $4 for a one litre bottle, which is enormously much less

expensive than other pomegranate source I have seen (assuming what it

says on the label is accurate!)

A study posted here, perhaps six months ago, showed sizeable benefits

from the consumption of very modest daily amounts of pomegranate,

possibly related to prostate cancer, but I forget the details.)

For those interested, no doubt that study could be located with an

archive search. There have not been a lot of posts in which the

word 'pomegranate' has appeared.

Rodney.
