POMEGRANATE

The pomegranate is a fruit formed by the amalgamation of several unit-like fruitlets. It is a round berry called balausta. It has a thick skin on the outside and a lot of inner seeds surrounded by a juicy pulp. Its color ranges from bright red to yellowish green or even white. Its taste is bittersweet. Pomegranates can ease the feeling of thirst. As they have energizing effect, they can relieve fatigue. Pomegranates are rich in vitamin C, iron and potassium.

History
The pomegranate 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. The fruit was used in many ways as it is today and was featured in Egyptian mythology and art, praised in the Old Testament of the Bible and in the Babylonian Talmud, and it was carried by desert caravans for the sake of its thirst-quenching juice. It traveled to central and southern India from Iran about the first century A.D. and was reported growing in Indonesia in 1416. It has been widely cultivated throughout India and drier parts of southeast Asia, Malaya, the East Indies and tropical Africa. The most important growing regions are Egypt, China, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran, Iraq, India, Burma and Saudi Arabia. There are some commercial orchards in Israel on the coastal plain and in the Jordan Valley.
