Numerous recent studies have demonstrated that pomegranate, in various forms, can be Included as part of a healthy lifestyle with no risk of toxic reactions.
However, most of these studies have been done on mice and rats and more research is needed before we will fully know all of the benefits or risks associated with pomegranate intake.
As with any herbal or dietary supplement, talk to your doctor about pomegranate juice before you start using it regularly. There is some concern that pomegranate juice may affect metabolism of some prescription medications as does grapefruit. It may also cause blood pressure to become too low when combined with certain blood pressure medicine.
How much is too much? There is no conclusive answer at this time, but most sources agree that 8 oz. per day is safe and more than enough to help you realize the maximum health benefits.
Play it safe!
Consult your physician!
