Fertility Fruit: October’s Healthiest Foods (w video)

This fruit won’t make you pregnant, but it has been a symbol for fertility, for prosperity, and also eternal life for thousands of years. 

Actually, people started planting this fertility fruit about 5,000 years ago! 

Why is it associated with fertility? 
Maybe its because this fruit is nothing more than a bunch of tart little seeds, that have the potential to produce thousands more pomegranates. 

That’s some reproductive potential!! 

But maybe because, for 5,000 years, the people who eat this are less likely to die from things like cancer (here’s the data) or heart problems for diabetics (here’s the data) as well as for everyone else (here’s the data)!!

So What’s The Problem?

The problem is that many people don’t know about them, don’t know how to prepare them, or even how to get the seeds out without becoming a red, juicy mess. 

So here is a great video showing you an easy way to de-seed this beautiful (if seedy) fertility fruit. 

Include the Food! (you don’t need to bathe in pomegranate juice, just have a little from time to time)

Check out this super simple supper recipe for a salad with carrots (just run them through a chopper) and pomegranate seed (just throw them in there) and finish it off with your own salad dressing — a squeeze of lemon and a couple of Tablespoons of olive oil. 

Oh, salt and pepper too. 

It’s also awesome because it combines two of  October’s healthiest foods. 

It’s ALSO awesome because its a salad that you can make for dinner, and then have it for lunch. Even though it’s a salad, it keeps really really well.
