Pomegranate
The pomegranate , botanical name Punica granatum, is a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub or small tree growing between 5–8 meters (16–26 ft) tall.
The pomegranate is widely considered to have originated in the vicinity of Iran and has been cultivated since ancient times.Today, it is widely cultivated throughout the Mediterranean region of southern Europe, the Middle East and Caucasus region, northern Africa and tropical Africa, the Indian subcontinent, Central Asia and the drier parts of southeast Asia.[4] Introduced into Latin America and California by Spanish settlers in 1769, pomegranate is also cultivated in parts of California and Arizona.[5]
In the Northern Hemisphere, the fruit is typically in season from September to February.[6] In the Southern Hemisphere, the pomegranate is in season from March to May.
The pomegranate has been mentioned in many ancient texts, notably in Babylonian texts, the Book of Exodus, the Homeric Hymns and the Quran.[7] In recent years, it has become more common in the commercial markets of North America and the Western Hemisphere.[4][5]
In preliminary laboratory research and clinical trials, juice of the pomegranate may be effective in reducingheart disease risk factors, including LDL oxidation, macrophage oxidative status, and foam cellformation.[52][53][54] In mice, "oxidation of LDL by peritoneal macrophages was reduced by up to 90% after pomegranate juice consumption...".[55]
In a limited study of hypertensive patients, consumption of pomegranate juice for two weeks was shown to reduce systolic blood pressure by inhibiting serum angiotensin-converting enzyme.[56] Juice consumption may also inhibit viral infections[57] while pomegranate extracts have antibacterial effects against dental plaque.[58]
Despite limited research data, manufacturers and marketers of pomegranate juice have liberally used evolving research results for product promotion, especially for putative antioxidant health benefits. In February 2010, the FDA issued a Warning Letter to one such manufacturer, POM Wonderful, for using published literature to make illegal claims of unproven antioxidant and anti-disease benefits
Clinical trial rationale and activity[edit]
Metabolites of pomegranate juice ellagitannins localize specifically in the prostate gland, colon, and intestinal tissues of mice,[62] leading to clinical studies of pomegranate juice or fruit extracts for efficacy against several diseases.
In 2011, 32 clinical trials were registered with the National Institutes of Health to examine effects of pomegranate extracts or juice consumption on a list of diseases:[63]
- prostate cancer
- prostatic hyperplasia
- diabetes
- lymphoma
- rhinovirus infection (completed, July 2008)
- common cold (completed, June, 2007)
- oxidative stress in diabetic hemodialysis
- atherosclerosis
- coronary artery disease
- infant brain injury
- hemodialysis for kidney disease

Pomegranate is called 'superfruit' superior antioxidant led by ellagic acid that seeks to protect the prostate gland, breast, lungs and heart or cardiovascular system. The study showed that pomegranate can destroy breast cancer cells without harming healthy cells and prevent breast cancer cells forming.
Studies on laboratory mice showed that pomegranate inhibits the formation of lung cancer, slow the growth of prostate cancer. In a study involving 50 prostate cancer patients, PSA levels stabilize consumption of pomegranate.
Pomegranate intake may prevent the formation of plaque in salurdarah dump arteries, reducing the levels of LDL or bad cholesterol and increase HDL or good cholesterol levels.Pomegranate can lower systolic blood pressure by up to 5 percent. This fact is especially helpful in controlling heart disease or cardiovascular system.
The study also showed that pomegranate can prevent and delay nyayuk disease or Alzheimer's disease. In one study, mice bred to suffer from Alzheimer's disease were given pomegranate and found amyloid plaque in the brains of mice and perform more active than tkus mind control.
Several studies showed that pomegranate can reduce the formation of dental plaque, prevent deterioration of cartilage and prevent arthritis. Pomegranate intake by pregnant women can protect the brain from damage after injured neonate
