Many people know about the benefits of pomegranate juice. This is a concentrated form of all the useful vitamins and minerals collected. But do not confuse fresh pomegranate juice with a bottle or package.
Factory juices are offered in stores after heat treatment and with a lot of preservatives, flavorings and sugars, which are harmful and can cause real harm to the body.
Natural pomegranate juice can be purchased or made by at home. You can buy freshly squeezed juice in the markets, in stores and restaurants, where they have special places where this can be done. There are not many of those places, but they exist. A specially trained person, using a press or juicer, prepares the right amount of pomegranate juice for you. Convenient, fast, but not very cheap.
Making pomegranate juice by yourself is possible, it does not take much time and will certainly bring pleasure. First you need to choose a few ripened pomegranates with sweet fruits. From very sour pomegranates you will get an unpleasant sour juice, which will have to be additionally sweetened. The juice you will get out of it will be about half the weight of the whole fruit.
If you do not have special time and desire to work with pomegranates, you can use a conventional citrus juicer, with a rotating core, to quickly prepare fresh homemade juice. Cut the pomegranates around the circumference, divide into two halves and, as you squeeze orange juice, squeeze the juice from the pomegranates. This method is not very good, since not all the juice will be squeezed out, but some grains will fall into the juice, so the juice must be filtered through a sieve or gauze. In addition, the pomegranate juice will be more bitter due to the ingress of substances from the white skins and peels.
For a more practical preparation of fresh pomegranate juice, you need to spend more time. You will need to separate all the pomegranate seeds, separating them from the peel and membranes. Then you can use a centrifugal juicer, if you have one, and very quickly get the right amount of pomegranate juice with minimal waste and a clean product at the outlet.
If you don't have a juicer, this is not a problem - use a gauze. From ripened pomegranates, the juice is sweet and healthy. It is desirable to dilute it with water to reduce the concentration of organic acids and their effects on the teeth and digestive organs and drink it immediately.
Pomegranate juice has maximum benefit for strengthening our health naturally.
