Researchers and health experts are always looking for synergistic combinations of natural health agents that may work together in a powerful way. Fulvic acid and Pomegranate Juice are two substances that have been well researched individually, and have also been shown to work together synergistically.

Analysis published in the journal Vaccine found that a combination of Fulvic acid and Pomegranate juice contained EVNCs – enveloped-virus neutralizing compounds, which can be effective in helping the body to neurtralize especially strong and potentially deadly viruses.

Researchers wrote  “Pomegranate juice was previously reported to inactivate HIV and further shown by our group to inactivate influenza, herpes viruses and poxviruses. A formulation consisting of fulvic acid, a complex mixture of compounds was previously reported to render vaccinia virus, HIV and SARS virus non-infectious.

“Recently, both fulvic acid and pomegranate juice have been shown to inactivate genetically diverse strains of influenza including H5N1, further confirming the broad spectrum nature of these agents.” Vaccine. 2008 Jun 6;26(24):3055-8. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2007.12.008. Epub 2007 Dec 26. In the same way these researchers identified anti-viral activity in both fulvic acid and pomegranate, other studies have shown both to have positive effects on sexual function.

In a study published in the Journal of Urology, it was found that Pomegranate Juice may also help with Erectile Dysfunction. “Long-term Pomegranate Juice intake increased intracavernous blood flow, improved erectile response and smooth muscle relaxation in Erectile Dysfunction and control groups while having no significant effect on NOS (nitric oxide synthase) expression. Pomegranate Juice intake prevented erectile tissue fibrosis in the Erectile Dysfunction group.”J Urol. 2005 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15947695Jul;174(1):386-93.
