Blood Pressure and Cholesterol - Healthy Lifestyle Message Board

proudmom47 · 10-05-2004, 10:14 AM

I just read in a magazine that POM juice is really gaining popularity in controlling blood pressure and cholesterol. I guess really heart health overall. Does anyone have any experience with this juice? I have seen it in the grocery stores and didn't really know what it was. I am going in for my annual check up tomorrow and hope those two numbers are down a little. My BP and cholesterol have started creeping up a little. I really need to lose weight and am working on that.

I've read in Reader's Digest and a women's mag. that pomegrant juice is gread for lowing bp and cholesterol. I tried it and it does work. However, it does take time, atleast for me it did. I have very high cholesterol.

I'm so surprised that it too people this long to figure out how nutritious a pomegranite is. I love just sitting down and eating the fruit fresh.
