Pomegranate is the best way to diet. Scientists claim that regular consumption of pomegranate may reduce feelings of hunger, and also increase the sensation of a full stomach.

In the study participants were given pomegranate, a pill or a glass of juice before a meal. The people who had the fruit reported lesser craving, a fuller stomach and ate comparatively lesser.

Pomegranate is called a super food due to its rich disease-preventing antioxidants.

Include pomegranate in your diet by making a simple salad: Combine a handful of pomegranate pearls, some cottage cheese (paneer) and mint leaves. Sprinkle some lime juice, salt and pepper. Toss and serve.
