Hello friends, I hope everyone is well.
As usual, today, on my way to take care of my pond, I came across a beautiful scene on the side of the road. A beautiful indigenous pomegranate tree stands tall in the boundary of one of my neighbor's houses. The tree is bearing a lot of pomegranates, which are really eye-catching. I couldn't resist the temptation any longer, so I took some pictures of this beautiful scene to share with you.
Looking at the pictures, many people might think that these are foreign Anar or Bedana bought from the market. Although they look exactly like Anar or Bedana, in fact, they are pomegranates from our country. I found out from the internet that the scientific name of this fruit is Punica granatum. Although its original habitat is mainly in Iran and Iraq, now it is found in abundance in the nature of our country.
The main difference between ordinary indigenous pomegranates and Anar or Bedana is their seeds. The seeds of Anar or Bedana are usually quite soft, but the seeds of our indigenous pomegranates are relatively hard. However, even though the seeds are hard, they are not inferior in taste. When this pomegranate tree ripens and turns red, the juicy seeds inside it are filled with juice. And it is very sweet and delicious to eat.
The native pomegranate is not only delicious to eat, but it has great health benefits in ancient Ayurvedic and Unani medicine. It is said that nothing goes to waste from the peel, flowers, leaves to the roots of the pomegranate tree. Let's learn about some of its wonderful medicinal properties:
Keeps blood and heart healthy: This is a fruit that is very beneficial for our heart. Eating pomegranate increases blood in the body and its natural insulin also helps a lot in controlling diabetes.
Cures dysentery and stomach diseases: Pomegranate peel works like magic in curing dysentery. If you do not throw away the pomegranate peel, dry it and then boil it in water and eat it, dysentery is cured. Pomegranate bark is also very useful in curing various stomach diseases in children.
To stop bleeding: If you suddenly get a cut or injury, then crushing a pomegranate flower and pressing it on the wound will stop the bleeding quickly. Even if someone suddenly has a nosebleed, applying pomegranate flower juice to the nose will stop the bleeding very quickly.
As a dewormer: Everyone from children to adults suffer from the problem of worms. Grind the bark of the pomegranate tree roots and mix it with lime water and drink it in moderation, the worms will be easily removed.
The natural environment of the village and such fruit trees on the roadside are a different beauty of our rural life. Even if the tree belongs to the neighbor, this wonderful gift of nature is a joy for all of us.
I hope you liked the pictures of this local pomegranate I took and the information about its unknown health benefits. Thank you very much to everyone.
I originally read its medicinal properties on Wikipedia and write it in my own language.
