Good morning!
Is everyone ready for a super, Antioxidant packed giveaway to start your Thursday?? I sure hope so, cuz this one’s great!
The lovely Janny from POM send me 2 sets of coupons to give away to my lovely readers! Naturally I was thrilled at the idea of giving away POM products on Oh She Glows. Afterall, antioxidants help neutralize free radicals in our body. These free radicals harm and destroy healthy cells! What’s a girl to do???
Fight back of course!
I like to think of antioxidants as nutrient powerhouses, that enter our body and clean up the bad guys.
Who wouldn’t want that?!
Of course, I had to make my first Green Monster with POM juice this morning!
Could my insides have been any happier? I think not.
The contents:
- 1 cup Almond Breeze in Original
- 3 organic kale leaves
- 1 ‘shot’ of POM juice in Blueberry
Remember: If you are new to Green Monsters, I always recommend adding a banana for some sweetness, as well as a bit more liquid.
The result:
This smoothie was awesome! It had a hint of blueberry. It was so pretty when I was blending it…it was this gorgeous pink and purple colour. Of course, if you don’t use as much kale as I do, it would be a deep purple hue! :) I will definitely be buying this for a treat to create some new recipes with.
Clinical Research Studies:
Naturally I was drawn to the clinical research information about POM! I am still a nerdy researcher at heart, what can I say.
- “After only three months, blood flow to the heart improved approx. 17% in a group that drank POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate juice, but worsened approx. 18% in the placebo group. The study included 45 patients with coronary heart disease.”
- “Compared to patients taking a placebo, those men drinking 8oz. of 100% Pomegranate Juice daily for 4 weeks were 50% more likely to experience erectile improvement in this study of 53 subjects.”

Mm…I love POM in green smoothies too!
I won’t enter since I still have a few free bottles from them, but great contest!
Hi Angela! I love your blog, I have only started reading it recently and it’s one of my favorites!! I looked at the POM ads and I really like “The Antioxidant Superower” with the cape. It’s cute:) I am in the US.
Thanks for the contest! I love POM juice, but cannot afford to buy so I’d love to win!! :)
Count me in for the contest!
I have to say, none of their ad campaigns are jumping out at me as particularly engaging, but I like the Pom Tea line the best. “Deliciously Empowering.”
Oh, and I’m from the US.
Love your blog!
First, I’m canadian!
My favorite ad is “POM Wonderful Juice” (1st one, top/left) because it goes right to the point. We’ve heard all about Antioxidant and knows it is good for us. So stated it in the ad really cathed my attention and made me want to buy the product. :)
Yum! I used POM in my smoothie the other day…

I also won’t enter because they sent me coupons too – I’ll give someone else a chance!
Diana
yum! And I’m an American.
I just linked to your giveaway: http://johnstonesvinblanc.blogspot.com/2009/03/green-velvet-cupcakes-for-st-patricks.html
what a cool giveaway
i love their posters – the chemistry and the psychology ones are really cool
i am canadian!
(also you should probably change “citizen” to “resident”)
awesome giveaway….
i love the one video about the love story. its so corny but cute.
i am a u.s. resident (but canadian)!!!!
agreed. it is super expensive. these coupons would come in handy
I’m Canadian, and my favourite ad is the “Cheat Death” one. I love Pom but it’s too expensive for me to buy :(
Holy yum!!
I’m American :-D The Cheat Death ad is my favorite.
What an awesome contest! I’ve recently started reading your blog (so great) and I love POM juice, I normally don’t drink juice but I love POM, it’s my weekly treat. I chose the “KA-POM” ad as my favorite because that’s sort of how I feel after some POM juice. I’m Canadadian!
I heart POM, but I either never think to buy it or am short on grocery money when I do…and it’s an indulgence really so it doesn’t make it into my basket!
I loved looking through the ads. I chose the “Relax, you’ll live longer” ad because I just returned from a Dominican vacation and the palm tree reminds me of the trip. :) Cute!
I’m Canadian!
Good Morning! I love POM. They are so creative. I would have to say that “Antioxidants are a girl’s new best friend” is my favorite. Antioxidants do a lot more for me than a flashy diamond. ;) Oh, and I’m an American Girl!
Wow, props to POM and OSG for the awesome giveaway!
They are all great POM ads, but my favorite would be “death defying”.
I am a proud Canadian ;)
I like the tea ones – especially the “Overide your genetics” because I’m fighting obesity which the rest of the family all struggle with as well. :) I can be different. That and the condensation on the glass makes my mouth water thinking about that icy cool drink…it’s in the 70’s here in the warm southern USA. :)
POM is unfortunately a splurge for me – too pricey! I’d love coupons!
I’m also a nerdy science gal, so the “pure science” ad was much appreciated. However, I laughed out loud when I saw the one that says “What gets your heart pumping?” with the pom in the bra…too funny!
I’m a US resident!
Hi Angela!
My favorite ad (it was tough…they’re hilarious!) is probably the “comic” caption one that says “Juice Impostors Beware!” I hate the sugary juices that are marketed as a healthy start to the day, and I hope more people will switch to a little POM-love in the mornings instead :).
US-girl here.
My favorite ad is the “Ancient power” one with the POM bottle as part of Stonehenge. It just cracked me up and I like that people will recognize what they mean. In general, I really like that whole line of ads (with the “Life preserver” and all those).
I’m an American!
cheat death is my favorite!! I’M AMERICAN!
My favorite is ‘Holy Health!’ :) Thanks so much for the fun concert and for your blog, I’m a regular reader.
I live in the US.
I love the POM Tea College poster!! Thanks for the contest! I will link back to this in my lunch post!
My favourite is the “Relax, you’ll live longer” ad, and I’m Canadian.
I think I have to go with the Guardian Angel ad as my favorite. The Pom bottle just looks so cute as an angel! I’m Anerican, by the way.
I’m Canadian but living in the US. I really liked the biology POM poster, as I’m a biology major and love anything to do with anatomy and physiology!
My husband used to buy POM whenever I sent him out to pick up the groceries, and we both loved to dring a small glass with soda water in the morning. However, we’ve put ourselves on a strict budget during the last 6 months since our daughter was born, and haven’t had any, so I’d love to win these! Sorry, no blog but I really like yours.
Angela,
I am living in Raleigh, North Carolina in the United States. My favorite commercial is the group talking about POM and it’s anti-cancering qualities as well as when one of them tries to take a bite of the pomegrante. I really hope to win this because I have always wanted to try the POM drink. We buy pomegrante juices but I have not splurged on the POM yet. Thanks!
Hi Angela! I like the POM college poster ad – I guess it’s the art nerd in me that like the modern art look of it. I’m in the US.
Hi Angela!
I love POM, but as a college student I can’t really afford to buy it. I really liked the POM psychology poster (under the college posters). I’m American.
Have a good day!
i need to try this in smoothies…i’ve tried drinking it straight and couldn’t stand it…although it wasn’t that brand so maybe it tastes better…i have been drinking a glass of acai blueberry juice in the morning…acai is supposed to be super powerful as well :-)
Canadian! My favorite add is the antioxidants are a girls best friend one :)
My favourite is “Death Defying”…something about that umbrella is so Mary Poppins…and you know Mary Poppins wouldn’t steer you wrong!
And I’m Canadian!
What a great giveaway! It was really difficult to choose just one, but since I only get one choice it would be the “Forever Young” ad with the hoola-hoops. It’s really eye-catching and playful and it also reminds me of “Forever Young” by Alphaville. hehe. I’m Canadian!
I am in the US and my favorite POM ad is the one with the theme “Relax, you’ll live longer”. Last September I spent a week in the Key’s relaxing and I 100% believe in taking time to relax and enjoy life.
I like the Super Antioxident one – Never fear POM Wonderful is here!
I am in the US.
HI Angela! I love POM juice and drink it with sparkling water..Mmmmm.
I really like the video ad “How to drink a Pomagranet” it was so funny and showed how men always like to do things the hard way as he is trying to crack into a pomagranet while the girl pulls out a straw and starts drinking the POM juice!! Too funny! :)
I am in Canada.
I didn’t know all those facts about pomegranates. I’m definitely going to have to start drinking more of that!
I am in the US.
I have never tried POM, so this sounds lovely. It looks like a wonderful smoothie addition!
I love the superpower AD. So cute.
And I’m in the US!
The superpower ad is very unique and it makes me laugh. I am in the US.
I would have to say I like the commercial where the guy is trying all sorts of weird things to break into the fruit while the girl just sticks her straw in th bottle and gets to business!!! :)
Canadian gal here!
ooh! I’ve never tried POM, but I heard good things about it and wanted to try it.. but it’s so pricey! Some free coupons would rock my world.
I’m from the US.
And I loved the POM biology poster, and I lol’d at the superpower “I’m off to save PROSTATES!” ad! XD I wish I was a superhero that saved prostates.
The Pom & Circumstance College edition one is too cute! I am from the US too! Awesome contest!
I’m Canadian, and my favourite ad is the superhero ones like “I am off to save prostates” lol. The posters are cool too!
Oh, I love POM! Very tasty mixed with some orange juice or sparkling water. I think the KA-POM! one is my favourite. I’m in Canada!
Thanks!!
I liked the “How to Drink a Pomegranite” ad.
I am in the United States!
i’m in the US!
i like the ” relax, you’ll live longer” and i also like superpower ad..they are adorable!

Yum!!!!! I have never tried POM before, but I have been on a huge Pomegranate kick lately!
My favorite ad is the “Forever Young” with the hula hoops because I think it is absolutely perfect design to put the hoops with the unique shape of the POM packaging!
I love the biology poster ad – I still remember most of the stuff on there from my anatomy lab!! I’m Canadian. :)
Hey,
I reside in America.
My favorite ad was the “reserve yourself” video. It’s comedic but informative. Thanks.
I’m in Canada :) I’m a huge nerd, I like the Periodic Table ad with POM at the end :)
“Antioxidants are a Girl’s New Best Friend” is my fav. I’m American but I have Canadian relatives (in British Columbia!)
Hello! Thanks so much for the opportunity! I’m American, and my favorite ad is the one that says The Antioxidant Superpower and the bottle has a cape that looks like it’s blowing in the wind! It’s very cute and goes caption.
Yum I’m a US resident and I’d love to try the POM juices! I’m also thinking about trying my first green juice too.
Hello from the US!
I love the Pom ad that says “Off to save the prostates!”
LOL Love it!
Hey Angela, great giveaway!
My favorite ad is the one that says “Life Support” and the Pom is hanging like an IV drip. All of their ads are so creative… I’ve never tried the product before but would LOVE to experiment with it in recipes, especially smoothies!
Leanne (and I’m American!)
I am torn between the guy trying to take a bite out of the pomegranite ad and the college posters. I am in the natural science program and my inner nerd lieks the biologgy poster of pom <3
Jacquelyn (american)
I love the “cheat death” one – I live in the US!
I am from AMerica:) My favorite ad was the “reserve yourself” video. And I will link!

I’m a US entrant. I like the Pom Wonderful “Forever Young” poster. Cute hula hoops! :)
I really liked the “Cheat Death” – with the noose – just because of the visual impact – I haven’t seen that one around -but I’ve seen some of the others like the one that says “I’m off to save prostates”
I live in the US and love POM juice!! It’s so good for the body
My favourite ad is definitely the “Relax, you’ll live longer” one.
And I’m Canadian!

I liked the biology poster. US citizen here. I’ve always wanted to try Pom, but it’s soooo expensive. Maybe this’ll be my chance.
I like the “Forever Young” ad, with…I’m not sure if they’re supposed to be hula hoops or bracelet/bangles or what around the bottle, but it’s pretty cool. US citizen, one of those broke college students who wishes healthy stuff like POM was more affordable!
My favorite ad is the one that says “Holy Health”.
I’ve tried the POM tea before but not the regular POM, so I hope I win :)
I am an American/US Citizen.
My favourite POM ad is Antioxidants are a girl’s NEW best friend!
I’m Canadian!
I like the Pom Tea College posters…reminds of the stuff I had on my wall when i was in undergrad!
I’m american!
I’ve never entered a blog contest before, but here goes! My favourite ad was the “What gets your heart pumping?” one. I just laughed out loud seeing the POM juice in a bra lol.
Oh and I’m canadian too.

I’m American…and I linked back to this on my blog!
