Pomegranates are known as a super fruit. The pomegranate is high in flavonoids, vitamin C, and Polyphenols, which are amazing antioxidants. These antioxidants found in the pomegranate help the body fight free radicals as well as slow anti-aging. It is said that the antioxidants are higher than those found in green tea, cranberry, and blueberries. Not just the seeds are beneficial for your skin. The skin of a pomegranate actually helps fight acne.

According to the southern Arizona guide, every October, the dedicated Park Rangers at Mission Tumacacori National Historical Park and the volunteers & staff at El Presidio de Tubac, the first Arizona State Park, put on one fine reenactment of the Juan Batista de Anza Expedition: known today at Anza Day. In 1775, when America’s founders were busy plotting independence from England on the eastern seaboard of North America, a relatively unknown Spaniard led about 240 immigrants and a thousand head of stock on a 1200 mile journey from the mission at Tumacacori in Southern Arizona to a little-known natural bay in Northern California. It was an audacious, some say ludicrous, venture. Amazingly, all of the immigrants survived what had to be one of the most difficult migrations in history. In 1776, they established El Presidio Real de San Francisco; aka The Royal Fortress of Saint Francis. A Catholic mission soon followed, as did a little village they called San Francisco. Today you can hike the 4.5 mile trail that leads from Tumacacori to Tubac. It is an easy, pleasant hike. For more information visit https://southernarizonaguide.com.
