After a troubled upbringing that saw the early death of her mother from cancer, Sarah Gabriel had created a happy home life with her partner and two beautiful daughters. Then, at 44, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and learned that while you can turn your back on your past, you can't escape your genetic legacy. The problem was MI8T, a rare and deadly genetic mutation that was responsible for the death of her mother and countless female ancestors. In Gabriel's struggle for survival, she takes us on a white-knuckle ride through contemporary genetics, the rigours of her treatment for cancer, and the impact of the disease on her family's dynamics. It is a fight not just for physical survival, but for identity, for sanity, for hope. Laced with black humour, written with a mixture of passion and clinical accuracy, Eating Pomegranates is an intensely powerful and moving memoir about mothers, daughters and breast cancer that is as beautiful as it is brutal.

An intensely powerful and moving memoir about genetics, mortality, family, femininity, and the author’s battle with cancer After the grief of losing her mother to cancer when Sarah Gabriel was a teenager, she had learned to appreciate "the charms of simple happiness." With a career as a journalist, a home in Oxford, England, a husband, and two young daughters, she was content. But then at age forty-four, she was diagnosed with breast cancer—the result of M18T, an inherited mutation on the BRCA1 gene that had taken the lives of her mother and countless female ancestors. Eating Pomegranates is Gabriel’s candid and incredibly intimate story of being forced to acknowledge that while you can try to overcome the loss of a parent, you can never escape your genetic legacy. Being diagnosed with the same disease that killed her mother compelled Gabriel to write this story. In her struggle for survival, she recounts the rigors of her treatments and considers the impact of a microscopic piece of DNA on generations of her family’s dynamics. She also revisits her past in an effort to reclaim her identity and learn more about the mother who disappeared too early from her life. Beautiful and brutal, Eating Pomegranates—like the myth of Persephone and Demeter, which inspires the title—is about mothers and motherless daughters. It is about a woman so afraid of abandoning her children that she is hardly able to look at them, and about the history of breast cancer itself, from early radical surgeries to contemporary medicine. Combining passion, humor, fierce intelligence, and clinical detail, Eating Pomegranates is an extraordinary book about an all-too-ordinary disease.

Table of Contents Introduction Pomegranates for Your Heart Heart Palpitations Heart Tonic Traditional Pomegranate Sherbet Seeding and Juicing a Pomegranate Pomegranates for Beauty Pomegranates for Tissue Massage Pomegranates for Your Skin and Hair Pomegranates for Your Teeth Some Traditional Appetite Enhancers Conclusion Cancer and TB Research Author Bio Publisher Introduction A little while ago I wrote a book called The Magic of Pomegranates, in which I spoke a lot of this supposedly exotic fruit, its native origin, its place in history, and the literature of the lands where it is very common, and so on. I also wrote a bit about how you could use it for beauty purposes, as has been done since ancient times and also for health. If you want to know more about the magic of pomegranates, Punica granatum –here is the link to the book: http://tinyurl.com/gvwn8w5 This book can be considered an extension of that particular book, especially when I was just going through some old herbal remedies and found pages and pages of ancient recipes, going back lots of ages in an old book called "Heal Thyself Through Thy Food." It was written by a physician in the 19th century, who was advocating natural food to help in the curing of ailments, as they had been done down the ages, and with the use of food and nothing else. And this book being an Eastern book had remedies about how fruit was used in ancient times to help in the curing of a number of problems and diseases of mankind. And then I found one fruit – the pomegranate, which was said to be the cure-all of all diseases, where natural remedies were right at hand. This book is going to tell you all about some of the common ailments, suffered by man, even today, when we should consider that the state-of-the-art medical technology should have cured many of these diseases and eliminated them from today's vocabulary of mankind. But, alas, that is not necessarily so. In the east, they have a saying – “one pomegranate, a 100 sick." It could either be that one pomegranate is enough to cure 100 people or also, in the case of the pomegranate’s known curative property to heal everything, supply is always going to be lesser than the demand! So sit back, relax, and browse through this book, which is going to tell you all about how 1 pomegranate can make all the difference between a healthy you and a sickly you. In ancient times, the wise healer/priest of the tribe, city, temple – especially in Babylon and Egypt – would always tell any person who was sick – get thee to thy abode and face the Sun God. After that, lift up a vessel full of pomegranate juice and taking his name, and asking him to bless you and give you good health, drink it down in one go.

Book Description: Pomegranates are increasingly distributed and consumed worldwide both as fresh fruit or processed products, like juices and food supplements. The present commercial success of this fruit and its purported health benefits are associated with an impressive increase of scientific research published on the pomegranate. The huge amount of new data produced every year by the scientific community necessitates a periodic review of the results. The aim of this book is to provide an update of the results in pomegranate research. Each chapter is conceived as an in-depth, state-of-the art compilation on the main topics regarding pomegranates. This is to ensure the status of a reference manual for all the scientists approaching different aspects of pomegranate research and to the industrial sector in order to improve/develop the pomegranate chain. The choice of an edited collection originates from the need to have different specializations and a multi-disciplinary approach to describe all the different topics related to pomegranates, spanning from botany, chemistry, and nutrition to technology and medical research. Topics discussed in this book include pomegranate biodiversity and phytochemical composition of pomegranate pulp, peels, seeds and oil; polyphenols antioxidant activity, bioavailability and metabolism by gut microbiota; current evidence supporting the benefits of pomegranate products in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease and cancer; allergies to pomegranate; pomegranate processing and recovery of waste from pomegranate juice production for their possible re-use as a source of nutraceuticals. Target Audience: This book is conceived as high academic level. The proposed book is dedicated to all the scientific community, however it can be useful also for industries of pomegranate processing or for food supplements producers.

Supple but crunchy, sweet but tart—with its strange construction of seeds filled with delicious garnet juice so vibrant it’s hard not think it is some otherworldly blood—no wonder the pomegranate has appealed so much to the human imagination throughout the centuries. Holding aloft this singular fruit in the light of human history, Damien Stone offers a unique look at an alluring fruit that has figured in our culinary consciousness from the gardens of the ancient world to the health-food section of supermarkets. Stone takes us back to the early polytheistic religions and the important role that pomegranates had in their rituals. From there he shows how they came to be held in high esteem in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam alike, examining exciting new findings that further cement their importance: for instance, many historians believe now that it was a pomegranate, not an apple, that was the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden. Stone examines the allure that the pomegranate has had to a fascinating cast of famous figures, from ancient Assyrian King Ashurnasirpal to Tudor Queen Anne Boleyn, from Sandro Botticelli to Salvador Dalí. Drawing on text, image, and taste, Pomegranate is a cornucopia of strange and fascinating stories about a very special fruit.
