More on Pomegranate Juice

While I was looking at pomegranate juice, I found some other interesting information about this fruit. One study showed that drinking 8 ounces of pomegranate juice a day over a three month period, increased the amount of oxygen reaching the heart muscle. This particular research was done with patients who had coronary artery disease. So with the effects mentioned yesterday and this research it stands to reason that pomegranate juice could be beneficial to your heart health.

There is another benefit that has been described, and that is the effect of this powerful antioxidant on cancers such as prostate and breast cancer. There is a reduction in the risk of breast cancer and in animal studies, they showed a slowing the growth of prostate cancer cells.
