Benefits
Pomegranate: This antioxidant and mineral-rich fruit, which is in season from September through January, has a number of health and beauty boosting benefits: it helps lower cholesterol and blood pressure, inhibits tumor and cancer growth, and relieves menopause symptoms. It also improves skin elasticity, and reduces acne and inflammation.
Pineapple: High in Vitamin C, pineapple supports a healthy immune system, while also promoting a more youthful appearance by increasing collagen production for plumper, firmer, tighter, skin. Manganese supports bone and tissue health, while enzyme bromelain aids in digestion.
Ginger: An extremely powerful anti-inflammatory, ginger banishes wrinkles and acne from the inside. It's also an excellent digestive aid, and is extremely helpful at relieving arthritis pain.
