Updated: Mar 19, 2018


Benefits of Pomegranate

The Middle Eastern fruit is claimed to be effective against heart disease, high blood pressure, inflammation and some cancers, including prostate cancer. Pomegranate is a good source of fibre. It also contains vitamins A, C and E, iron and other antioxidants (notably tannins).

Pomegranate juice contains higher levels of antioxidants than most other fruit juices. It also has three times more antioxidants than red wine and green tea. The antioxidants in pomegranate juice can help remove free radicals, protect cells from damage, and reduce inflammation.

1) Antioxidant Strength: Organic pomegranate powder is an excellent source of potent antioxidants like flavonoids and polyphenols, which reduce oxidative damage to cells caused by harmful free radicals. ... Pomegranates are also a good source of protective minerals like calcium, potassium, magnesium, and phosphorous.

According to Joel Fuhrman, not only do arils lower cholesterol, they can "lower high blood pressure and increase the speed at which heart blockages melt away." 3. Overeating prevention. For being so small, pomegranates are surprisingly high in fiber—one of the most important nutrients for sustainable weight loss.
