Abstract :
Pomegranatesarea greatsourceofantioxidant compoundssuchaspolyphenols, which preventstheoxidative stress and is effectiveinimprovingblood circulation. Thisstudywasconductedto determine theeffects ofpomegranate juiceonhomogramadult malerats.Inexperimentalstudy 40 male Wistarratswere divided intofive groups: control, sham and experimental. The experimental groupwas dividedintothree categories: Theywere givenpomegranate juicewithvalues 1, 2 and 4 mlorallyduring21 days. The sham groupreceiveddistilled water and the control groupdid notreceiveanything.Bloodsamples were takenat the end ofthe twenty-firstdayoftheventriclesof animals and all blood sampleswere measuredusingroutinelaboratorymethods, the total number ofwhite blood cells, red, platelets, hemoglobin and hematocrit,meancell hemoglobinconcentration, meancorpuscularhemoglobinandmeancorpuscularvolume. The resultswere analyzedusingANOVAandt-test. The results showed that pomegranate juice may be a dose-dependent decrease in white blood cells, the concentration of hemoglobin in the blood, the platelets, the percentage of lymphocytes and monocytes (P 0.05).The results ofthis studyshowed thatPomegranate juicemaybe effectiveonhomogramby havingflavonoid andantioxidant compounds
