Can a glass of pomegranate juice really help slow the growth of prostate cancer? In this episode of The Moss Report, Ben Moss and Dr. Ralph W. Moss take a deep dive into the clinical research on pomegranate and cancer—especially prostate cancer. They explore landmark studies from Johns Hopkins and UCLA, uncover the political backstory behind the POMx extract, and offer practical guidance for integrating pomegranate into a cancer-fighting or preventative diet.

Dr. Moss also shares his personal use of pomegranate powder, discusses antioxidant synergy, and introduces options that reduce sugar intake without sacrificing benefits. A compelling look at how traditional foods meet cutting-edge science.

“Fill up that self-help space with scientifically documented ways to reduce your cancer risk.” – Dr. Ralph W. Moss
