Sir,
Am eating a Pomegranate every night before lay to bed. Let me know that is the right time to have that or in morning. Pomegranate freshly eaten or a cup of juice which is good. Waiting for your reply against my doubts.
thanks & regards

The best time to eat fruit is either first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, or as a mid-morning snack (which I prefer) – in between breakfast and lunch
Wow this is amazing! I never know pomegranate has this many health benefits! I have been in love with the fruit since I was a child and I still love it. There is one juice brand which makes the best pomegranate juice – KDD Harvest. The minute I drink this juice I feel refreshed and it cools the body instantly. All my friends are also hooked on to this juice, thanks to me
Once you try it, it will surely make you a fan of the juice.
