The references for possible weight loss are a bit confusing – one is for pomegranate seed oil, one is for a pomegranate supplement and one for pomegranate leaf extract.

Pomegranates do have so many health benefits and can be classified as a “Super Food” however, the maximum benefits can be obtained by having the actual raw fruit, as any store bought juice is pasteurized, which destroys the life giving enzymes in the heating process.

Am I the only one who really wants to love pomegranates, but doesn’t… I mean the health benefits are overwhelming, but I just don’t like the taste – even the juice doesn’t work either… I guess I just need to get over it!

This is great information! We use pomegranate oil extensively in our face care line with scholarship suggesting its beneficial use in fighting wrinkles and aging. Maybe using it on the inside and out might be the way to go!

To juice a pomegranate, I highly discourage you from using a juicer. Instead, roll the pomegranate on your counter top, pressing down firmly to squeeze the juice out of the seeds. Then, over a medium-sized bowl placed in a sink, make a slit in the side of the pomegranate and squeeze out the juice in to the bowl. This way, you shouldn’t get any of the tiny seeds into the juice. But be careful! Always wear an old t-shirt when doing this in case you spray yourself with the juice!

Did you know in Afghanistan the peel of the pomegranate is reserved and used to make red dye for carpets?

how do you juice the pomegrante. Do you put the whole fruit in the juicer and whatever cant be juiced will become pulp? I have a centrifical juicer that creates pulp out one end and juice thru a screen out the other. Do you peel the skin before juicing? thank you

I love drinking pomegranate juice, although i’m not a big fan of eating the seeds. There’s something about the texture that just weirds me out.

Great post. Especially the “How to eat a pomegrante” part. That’s definitely something that takes awhile to get right.
