    Pomegranate Juice

    I've been Googling for remedies for general anxiety relief and a common remedy I've noticed on a lot of sites is pomegranate juice.

    I bought a large jug of it and I've incorporated it into my supplement routine. 4oz a day mixed into my nutrient smoothie.

    I haven't had an attack for the week I've been using it. I've also felt much more calm. My extreme swings even seem less swingy--if that makes sense.

    One good week isn't substantial enough for me to think that it works but I'm hopeful.

    Does anyone have experience with Pom Juice? If so, pplleeaasseee share with me.

    Thanks!

    Never tried it.

    I could combine it with my cherry juice regime that I employ for gout.

    I don't mind being placebed. It's much underrated.

    Actually, I don't think it's a placebo. I was reading an article on tests done using the main polyphenol (antioxidant) found in pomegranate and it reduced induced anxiety by 15%-30% in all the rats.

    Rube maybe, I would like to believe it. There is not doubts that deficiency of vitamins can cause havoc in the body. Do you know how to open it? I just learned, I love this fruit so much ) As long as it help you, by all means use it

    pomegranate seeds are the most brilliant thing to change your dishes too.

    You can use them fresh in pickles or curries or with fried fish , or roast them and sprinkle them on salads.

    Just put them in where you might use tamarind or lime. Delicious.
