November usually coincides with thoughts of turkey and stuffing and all the trimmings of Thanksgiving but did you know that November is also National Pomegranate Month?
The pomegranate is a pretty amazing fruit. It will supply you with a rich dose of heart-healthy antioxidants, help reduce blood pressure and the risk of blood clots, fight dental plaque, and may even help prevent cancer. In some countries, it’s also popular because of it’s ability to prevent wrinkles and improve skin condition. Not bad, right?
