Pomegranate Juice

I want to encourage everyone to try POMEGRANATE JUICE.

I saw a remarkable study the other day touting the anti-inflammatory effects of this fruit, probably due to the high level of polyphenols. It has more than red wine.

After downing about half a cup three times a week over a year, those who drank the real thing had a reduction of inflammatory molecules in their blood.

Also, according to the findings, among 50 patients drinking pomegranate juice for a year, about 2 would have to go to the hospital at least twice. By comparison, that number would be nearly 11 in patients not drinking the juice.

These are pretty interesting findings.

In the last few days, I've had a few cups of this stuff a day. It's delicious, but pricey. I have noticed that I am sleeping better at night and much more energetic during the day. I usually have to take a caffeine tablet every day to stay conscious, but yesterday I went the whole day without needing one, which is highly unusual.

Now do not go crazy and drink too much. There is plenty of evidence for other phytochemicals, which are very healthy at small doses, being unhealthy at very large doses (eg. anti-cancer at low doses but carcinogenic at massive doses). So remember the old maxim of "moderation in all things".
