Pomegranate seeds are full of antioxidants which restrict LDL to oxidize which cause atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries.These seeds also act like aspirin which keep blood platelets sticking together and forming blood clots.

Not really. A healthy diet high in antioxidant fruits, omega 3 foods, and lean proteins lend to heart health. A major pomegranite manufacturer was recently issued an order to stop claiming the juice improved heart health. No food or dietary supplement can claim to cure, or treat any disease without approval from the FDA with medically accepted clinical trials. Always look for clinical trials, not in house clinical studies.

The research into this is inconclusive, but it is recommended to ask your doctor before eating pomegranates if you currently take Warfarin (blood thinner) as it is possible that it might increase the risk of bleeding.

As an opener you should know that cholesterol is essential for the certain reissues in your body and good and bad cholesterol . You's better know which you want to reduce.Like all miracle or "natural" cures the evidence for pomegranate juice reducing cholesterol is rated as potential by the Mayo Clinic. there is also a caution that you should talk to your doctor about pomegranate juice (or any natural, herbal or new age medication) before you start drinking it regularly as a supplement.

Pomegranate juice may cause dangerous side effects when it interacts with certain prescription medications, such as the blood thinner warfarin (Coumadin, Jantoven) and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, including captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril) and ramipril (Altace).
