Pom Wonderful, the US’s largest producer of California Wonderful pomegranates, announced that the pomegranate harvest is underway and fruit will be available from now until January.

The 18,000 acres of trees in POM Wonderful’s central California orchards produced a healthy and plentiful crop this year.

POM Wonderful exclusively grows and handpicks the Wonderful variety of pomegranate in the US, renowned for its sweet taste, plentiful juice and unique health benefits.

Wonderful pomegranates contain polyphenol antioxidants, which help protect the body against free radicals, as well as vitamin C, potassium and fibre.

POM Wonderful also uses its fresh Wonderful pomegranates to make its all-natural POM Wonderful 100 per cent Pomegranate Juice, making it the only pomegranate juice maker that controls its products from tree to bottle. This stringent process of quality control results in 100 per cent pure pomegranate juice with superior taste and a consistent dose of polyphenol antioxidants.

Over the last decade, 10 clinical studies have been published in peer-reviewed journals that the juice, solely derived from the Wonderful variety, may help promote heart and prostate health.
