Guest guest Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I recently ate a pomegranate . . . delicious. I ate them when I was a kid, but I don't remember them being so sweet. However, they are a royal pain to eat! . . . Seeds throughout! . . . I'd suggest getting POM juice. Even WalMart has it! . . . It's expensive, but considering the number of pomegranates they had to juice to get there, it's probably cheaper than eating the fruit.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Hi Rogene, I started buying Pomegranate juice for my husband a couple months ago because it is suppose to help with his cholesterol. Everyone in the house including my 3 year old drinks it now. It seems like all of a sudden eveywhere you look pomegranate is geing pushed like its something new out. It is a little more expensuve but i would rather put the extra $2.00 out and get that then buy soda. > > I recently ate a pomegranate . . . delicious.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Healing Herbs and Oils Healing Herb of the Week: Cinnamon This delightful herb was part of the holy oil used to anoint the priests and vessels in the tabernacle of Moses (Exodus 30:22-25). It was also mentioned in setting the stage for romance (Proverbs 7:17- 18). The ancient Chinese used cinnamon to treat health conditions as early as 2700 B.C. Originally imported from India and Sri Lanka in biblical times, this herb has become one of America's favorite spices. It calms the stomach and may even prevent ulcers. Recent research indicates cinnamon contains benzaldehyde, an anti-tumor agent, along with antiseptic properties that kill the bacteria that cause tooth decay and disease-causing fungi and viruses. It may even prevent urinary tract infections (UTI) and infestations of candida. Dr. A. Duke reports that USDA researchers discovered that cinnamon reduces the amount of insulin necessary for glucose metabolism in type 2 diabetes. One-eighth teaspoon of this herb triples insulin efficiency! (Warning: Although the substance is a powerful germicide, do not consume straight cinnamon oil. It may cause vomiting or kidney damage.)
