A few weeks ago, Doug posted an item about the medical breakthrough of the pomegranate.
Now we learn that POM, a major producer of pomegranate products, is being attacked by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) for their advertising claims.

I don't drink that brand anyway, it is too expensive. They sell large jars of pomegranate juice from Georgia and Turkey for $3. POM might be exagerating the health benefits the same way they do their prices.
Shakuey,
You may be right!
