Introduction

Pomegranate, (Punica granatum L in Latin), belongs to the family Punicaceae which includes only one genus and two species. The tree is native from Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and has been cultivated since ancient times throughout the Mediterranean region of Asia, Africa and Europe.

Pomegranate offers abundant benefits for the cardiovascular system by preventing damage to arterial walls, promoting healthy blood pressure levels, improving blood flow to the heart, and preventing or reversing atherosclerosis.

Pomegranate may benefit people with diabetes and those at risk for the disease. It helps lower after-meal blood sugar levels and protects the cardiovascular system from diabetes-induced damage.

Pomegranate shows promise in killing prostate cancer cells, whether the cells are hormone-sensitive or not. Pomegranate also helped halt the progression of prostate cancer in men who had undergone surgery or radiation for the disease.

Pomegranate may fight the degeneration of joint tissue that leads to painful osteoarthritis, and may protect the brain against oxidative stress-induced changes that can lead to Alzheimer’s. Pomegranate extracts—alone or in combination with the herb gotu kola—help kill the bacteria that contribute to dental plaque, while helping to heal gum disease. Pomegranate also appears to protect the health of the skin and liver.

Function

1.Anti-cancer of rectum and colon, esophageal carcinoma,liver cancer,lung cancer,carcinoma of tongue and skin.

2.Restrain to human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) and many kinds of microbe and virus.

3.Anti-oxidant, coagulant, descenting blood pressure and sedation.

4.Resist to anti-oxidance, senescence inhibition and skin whitening

5.Treat kinds of symptoms caused by high blood sugar, hypertension.

6.Resist to atherosclerosis and tumour.

Application

Pomegranate P.E. can be made into capsules, troche and granule as healthy food. Besides, it has good solubility in water plus the solution transparence and brilliance color, has been widely added into the beverage as the functional content.

James LaBagnara, MD, FACS, Vice President, Medical Affairs, St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center, provides important information regarding effective treatments of nose bleeds and recommendations for prevention.

Nose bleeding is a fairly common condition in adults, but it is even more common in children. The bleeding point most often is on the nasal septum, only a half an inch or three quarters of an inch into the nostril. Most nasal bleeding is fairly minor and easily controlled at home by simply applying pressure to the nostril that’s bleeding. An even better method is to soak a piece of cotton with either Afrin or Neo-Synephrine, place the cotton ball in the bleeding nostril and pinch the nose closed for about 10 minutes. This will be effective in probably 98% of the cases. Serious nasal bleeding can occur in some medical conditions when there is a problem with coagulation or the person is taking anticoagulants. Aspirin is an antiplatelet drug and a serious anticoagulant and probably the most common drug to cause nose bleeds. After applying local pressure, a good second step is to stop the Aspirin and let your doctor know.

The following popular methods of controlling nose bleeds are completely ineffective:

Putting ice on the back of the neck
Putting a piece of a brown paper bag inside the lower lip
Putting the head down to let the blood out; keep your head erect
Letting the nose bleed continuously ‘to lower the pressure’
Squeezing the nasal bone on the bridge of the nose

Recurrent nasal bleeding in adults and children, whether taking Aspirin or not, require a visit to your ENT doctor where the nose can be cauterized easily and painlessly with a little anesthesia. Things you can do to prevent nose bleeds:

Keep the membranes of the nose moist especially in winter months with saline drops or gel or a medicated ointment
Don’t blow your nose too hard, be gentle
And of course, keep your fingers out of your nose!

Remember nasal bleeding, or bleeding from anywhere is never normal, always consult your doctor.

Hank talks about the molecules that make up every living thing – carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins – and how we find them in our environment and in the food that we eat.
