  Barron, thanks for sharing with us this very useful article on the medicinal benefits of Pomegranate.
  Another article from the same website is: 'A Pomegranate a Day Keeps the Doctor Away' (May 01, 2008) by Cathy Sherman on http://www.naturalnews.com/003145_pomegranate_cancer_seeds.html.
  The first and last two paragraphs in the article say,
  
  "(NaturalNews) Recent studies on a very old fruit are confirming what the ancients believed about the pomegranate. Also known as rimmon, its Hebrew name, the pomegranate has long been prized for its benefits to heart health. We now know it also can be helpful in treating diabetes, dementia, cancer and menopausal problems, and it can even prevent sunburn. ...
  
  "The rimmon/pomegranate is living up to its Biblical reputation as a life-giving fruit. It has been proven to prevent or heal many disorders. Unfortunately, both the fruit itself and the juice are presently expensive. Another downside is that drug companies have discovered this gem of a fruit and will be exploiting it.
  
  "If you live in the area from the southern United States to Chile and Argentina, and especially in the arid regions of California, Arizona and northern Mexico, you could successfully grow your own supply of pomegranates. The tree grows well in a wide range of climatic conditions and is well adapted as an ornamental shrub in cool coastal areas."
