Lightbulb pomegranate juice...

I use pomegranate juice daily for some of my fruit.
Why?.... the newest data shows the antioxidant values for this fruit are
just enormous... prevent oxidation of LDLs (bad cholesterol) and also
prevents damage to arteries and veins with age.

Some companies have pomegranate with other fruits now.
My favorite is Pomegranate/100% cherry (good for arthritis).

Sometimes when my favorite is not in season, I buy the "dried" type and
mix with nuts for a snack. I have found 100% dried blueberries at WalMart
(with no sulfites) and also cherries (no sulfites). Some dried fruit however has sugar added, and sulfites (which can make allergies worse for some).
These new dried varieties lend well to taking with you to work, or whatever when you are busy...frozen is not so convenient for me.
