History and Uses:
Pomegranate is a native of Persia, but is now cultivated around the world. The Pomegranate may grow to thirty feet in height and can live for centuries. The fruit has been a staple in the Middle East since Biblical times and is mentioned often in the Old Testament. The fruit is a nutritious source of protein, iron, calcium, phosphorus and potassium. Pomegranate is also a source of citric acid and tannic acid. It is high in antioxidants; and in some studies, Pomegranate has lowered LDL cholesterol levels. Pomegranate has been used medicinally in cases of dyspepsia, diarrhea, dysentery and leprosy. It has also been found to contain some antimicrobial compounds and has been used for centuries as an effective vermifuge, especially in cases of tapeworm infestation and other parasites present in the intestines. Pomegranate has also been employed as a gargle for sore throat and is currently being studied as a potential chemoprotective substance in cases of malignant breast disease.

Recommended Dosage:
Take two (2) capsules, one (1) to two (2) times each day with water at mealtimes. Do not exceed recommended dosage.

Contraindications:
Pomegranate should not be used by pregnant and nursing women, and overuse (many times the recommended dosage) may cause cramps, vomiting and diarrhea.
