Introduction

FERMENTED VINEGAR POMEGRANATE Fermented pomegranate vinegar is a naturally-matured vinegary beverage using 100% quality pomegranate cultivated in Iran, and it has a distinctive flavor and function different from existing pomegranate beverages by adding honey, vitamin C, and natural sweeteners. Ever since the fact that middle-aged women who live near the Persian Gulf maintain longer youth and experience almost no menopausal problems compared with the women of other regions is known to the public, pomegranate receives a lot of attention. Pomegranate contains estrogen-like substances and other compounds such as potassium, pectin, and tannin as well as carbohydrate, amino acid, and vitamins. Pomegranate is considered to be an effective fruit for women and for modern people who are deficient in minerals and vitamins from consuming too much processed food.
