It is know that the Pomegranate is the oldest fruit known to man. This perfect fruit has seeds that are surrounded by a sac of sweet tart juice contained by a thin membrane. This membrane is paper-thin which is bitter to the taste. The membrane is useful as a skin wash. You have the option to eat the seeds or not.  The seeds serve as roughage to help cleanse the body. The origins of this sweet fruit are from Iran to the Himalayas in the northern India but, then it was cultivated and naturalized over the whole Mediterranean region since ancient time.

Pomegranate grows in a semi-arid-temperate to subtropical climate and naturally adapted to regions with cool winter and hot summers. The pomegranate trees can bear temperatures below 12 degree Fahrenheit so this fruit can be grown in California.  This super fruit has many different health benefits.  Pomegranate has 3 times more antioxidants ounce for ounce than red wine or green tea.  It contains 40% of Recommended Daily Allowance (R.D.A) of Vitamin C.  It also contains Vitamin A, Vitamin E and Folic Acid.
