Pomegranates

Top 10 Superfoods

Pomegranates are considered a superfood because they can help combat stroke and hypertension

Well-represented in ancient art and literature, pomegranates have been slow to migrate away from the Mediterranean and Middle East. Only recently have the seeds of this superfood been found sweetening dishes, such as soups and salads, in Western countries. Drinking the juice of this seedy red fruit promotes a healthy heart as well as helps combat stroke, hypertension and Alzheimer's disease. In Ayurvedic medicine, pomegranates are used as a traditional remedy for diarrhea, dysentary and intestinal parasites.
