Many of the pioneering researchers responsible for initiating our new found fascination with pomegranates discuss its biochemistry, detailing the location and action of the phytochemicals found in the fruit's flesh, peels and seeds. They present evidence of the pomegranate's impact on heart disease, including its ability to enhance nitric oxide production in endothelial cells.

Recognizing that the pomegranate is only as valuable as it is available, the editors include a substantial section on commercialization and another on plant growth and improvement. These additions make this text as uniquely essential for botanists and agriculturists as it is for nutritionists, cancer researchers, natural product chemists, botanical supplement producers and consumers, and pharmacognosists seeking to evaluate both the pomegranate's legacy and future as a powerful natural healing agent.
Discussing its biochemistry, as well as its history, many of the researchers responsible for initiating our newfound fascination with the pomegranate examine recent findings regarding the fruit's preventive potential against two of the major chronic diseases of aging, heart disease and cancer, detailing the location, action, and bioavailability of
