POMEGRANATE
Pomegranate fruit is native from Iran to the Himalayas in
northern India and was cultivated and naturalized over the whole
Mediterranean region since ancient times. It is widely cultivated throughout
India and the drier parts of southeast Asia, Malaya, the East Indies and
tropical Africa. The tree was introduced into California by Spanish settlers
in 1769. In this country it is grown for its fruits mainly in the drier
parts of California and Arizona.
The pomegranate is one of the oldest fruits as well as richest in history
and folklore. Once you get past the multitude of seeds, its juice is tangy,
sweet, rich and flavorful. This juice becomes the base for sauces and
flavorings for drinks, savory dishes, and sweets, while the whole seeds are
a simple delight eaten fresh or used as a colorful accent as a garnish. The
fruit is about the size of an orange. The rind color can range from
yellow-orange to deep reddish-purple.
Health Benefits
The health benefits of pomegranate juice are becoming more widely known.
Because of this, in turn, there is currently a great deal of research being
conducted on it.
The current info on pomegranate juice is that it is very beneficial for us
because of the antioxidants it contains.
As you may know, antioxidants can neutralize free radical damage. Free
radicals are highly reactive chemical substances that can damage our body's
cellular materials, which, in turn, may be linked to major degenerative
illnesses, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, or even aging itself.
What else can account for the health benefits of pomegranate juice? Well, it
contains a broad range of healthy substances. For example, pomegranates
contain polyphenols, tannins and anthocyanins. These compounds are believed
to fight disease.
We may soon see pomegranate supplement extracts manufactured and sold
because the extract is being studied for possible anti-cancer properties.
Extra Information
Every pomegranate is composed of exactly 840 seeds, each surrounded by a sac
of sweet-tart juice contained by a thin skin. The seeds are compacted in a
layer resembling honeycomb around the core. The layers of seeds are
separated by paper-thin white membranes which are bitter to the tongue. The
inner membranes and rind are not generally eaten due to high tannic acid
content, but they are useful as a skin wash.
