Pomegranate...a rarely seen fruit but touted as a superfood.....



Pomegranate is being touted as a miracle drug for aging, Alzheimer's, cancer, heart disease, arthritis and even protecting unborn babies from brain injuries. It cures about anything that can ail an aging senior citizen.


This superfood with its deep purple juice is loaded with antioxidants. The high level of antioxidants found in this fruit is effective in combating free radicals that may cause a number of afflictions including heart disease, stroke, hypertension, premature aging, Alzheimer's disease and even cancer....
