Does anyone drink pomegranate for it's possible anti bacterial and anti inflammatory properties? Buhner suggests it for Mycoplasma mostly but just curious if anyone in the community uses it. Thanks.

I use it, however not on a daily basis. I should use it more frequently.

I drink 1-2 oz. of organic pomegranate juice after every dose of herbs that I take 4x daily.

This is per Buhner's recommendation for Bartonella treatment....it just makes sense to me.

Thanks All!

cd - does taking it right after herbs increase their intensity? Or is it a way to remember to drink it?

Because of its many actions, Buhner recommends using pomegranate juice in which to mix herbal tinctures. On pg 201 of his coinfection book that includes Bartonella, he states that pomegranate is synergistic with a number of herbs (they enhance the actions of each other).

I prefer to taste my pomegranate juice on its own and that's why I drink it immediately afterwards. It does a great job of getting "tincture taste" out of my mouth ;)

I love real pomegranate seeds. I prefer that to the juice, but can generally only get them late September through New Years where I am located.

So, I get a bunch and freeze them in freezer bags -- I am out now and can hardly wait.

I so dislike buying organic frozen ones but have resorted to that.

I almost forgot one more question on Buhner's Bartonella Protocol. Where have you purchased the "Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (800 mg EGCg plus)"? I am not seeing this exactly on Amazon.

Thanks all!
