“Vitamins and minerals in fresh food”
POMEGRANATE
Personally I have had little to do with Pomegranates and certainly have not grown them. In India, where they have supposedly originated, they are highly prizes for their flavour. They are sometimes called a “super food”, because they are very valuable in the B complex group and vitamin K.
Vitamins: K high, C, B1, B6, B5, B3, B2, E.
Minerals: Potassium, Magnesium, Phosphorous, Manganese, Zinc, Iron and Selenium.
Most people make juice with the fruit, but they can be eaten raw.
For flavourings they are used in the middle eastern countries and some exotic dishes are made with them.
