Used plant part:
The interior of the pomegranate fruit is composed of many pink-red sections of pulp-like tissue, each of which contains a small seed grain. These sections are usually, slightly inaccurately, referred to as "pomegranate seeds".
Dried pomegranate seeds stem from sour varieties whose fruits cannot be eaten raw.
The bark of the pomegranate tree may be used as a very strong laxans (purgative), but it has several serious side-effects.
