Where can I buy POM seeds?

If your grocery store carries pomegranate seeds, you should find them in the produce aisles. They may be sold in bags or plastic clamshell containers. Alternatively, you can buy whole pomegranates and harvest the seeds at home. This can be worthwhile when you don't see the seeds sold separately.

Are pom seeds good for you?

Pomegranate seeds are different from the arils, which are the sweet, juice-filled pulps that this fruit is known for. The seeds themselves appear to be perfectly edible. They are a good source of antioxidants, insoluble fiber, and punicic acid.

Are pom poms healthy?

Healthy Snacking Bursting with a sweet, tart taste, and a unique texture, POM POMS are not only delicious, they also deliver antioxidants and nutrients such as polyphenols, vitamin C, vitamin K, potassium and fiber.

Do you eat the seeds in pom poms?

You can eat the whole arils including the fiber-rich seeds, or spit out the seeds if you prefer- it's your choice! The rind and the white membranes surrounding the arils are bitter and we don't suggest eating them- although some say even that part of the pomegranate has medicinal value!

What happens if we drink pomegranate juice daily?

According to a recent study, drinking as little as two ounces of pomegranate juice daily has shown to lower blood pressure, improve cholesterol and cleanse plaque from arteries—all good news for your heart. The study goes on to suggest that pomegranate juice may be “prudent” to add to a heart-healthy diet.

Is POM good for high blood pressure?

Pomegranates are believed to reduce blood pressure through reducing levels of Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). ACE is a protein that plays an important role in controlling blood pressure through controlling the size of blood vessels in the body.

How long does it take pomegranate juice to lower blood pressure?

Pomegranate juice is rich in antioxidant polyphenols, which can reverse atherosclerosis as well as vascular inflammation, and thereby lower blood pressure. But it has other anti-inflammatory effects, and most of the effects can occur quickly, after drinking as little as 5 ounces a day for only two weeks.
