Dear Black women you know I wrote a Blog a short while ago that pomegranates are so good for you. You might still wonder – why bother eating them? Well here’s your re-cap:
- High in vitamin C
- Antioxidants – vitamins A and E
- Iron
- other antioxidants
- Helping to protect against heart disease and high blood pressure
Don’t forget, it’s suspected’ that the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nature of pomegranates is what really can help us; especially when our hormones are going up and down!
How do I cut a pomegranate?
But they are not easy to cut, so here’s 3 simple videos below I made to help you!
Get the chopping board and be careful with the sharp knife! But start by cutting a square in the top.
Then at each corner of the square, cut a line downwards (in a slicing action).
From here you can pull the slice(s) out of the pomegranate and scrape out the seeds. I find a fork helps and use a bowl because it can get a bit messy!
Go ahead and enjoy a pomegranate for your health and your taste buds and let me know what you think 🙂
