Pomegranate Juice May Reduce Coronary Problems
(The Institute for Research in the Medical Sciences, Israel, 2000)

Researchers have found that pomegranate juice may reduce major risk factors for heart disease. The antioxidants in the juice apparently prevented plaque build-up in the arteries of mice by reducing the oxidation of LDL cholesterol which produces cell-damaging free radicals. They noted that ½ a glass of pomegranate juice each day may significantly reduce existing arterial plaque in addition to inhibiting the formation of new plaque.
