Benefits of Pomegranate
Here are some of the potential benefits of pomegranate.
1. Antioxidants
Pomegranate seeds get their vibrant red hue from polyphenols. These chemicals are powerful antioxidants
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
.
2. Vitamin C The juice of a single pomegranate has more than
40 percent of your daily requirement of vitamin C. Vitamin C can be broken down when pasteurized, so opt for homemade or fresh pomegranate juice to get the most of the nutrient.
3. Cancer prevention
Pomegranate juice recently made a splash when researchers found that it may help stop the growth of
prostate cancer cells. Despite multiple studies on the effects of the juice on prostate cancer, results are still preliminary.
While there havent been long-term studies with humans that prove that pomegranate juice prevents cancer or reduces the risk, adding it to your diet certainly cant hurt. There have been encouraging results in studies so far, and
bigger studies are now being done
.
4. Alzheimers disease protection
The antioxidants in the juice and their high concentration are believed to stall the progress of Alzheimer disease and protect memory.
5. Digestion
Pomegranate juice can reduce inflammation in the gut and improve digestion. It may be beneficial for people with
Crohns disease
, ulcerative colitis, and other inflammatory bowel diseases.
While there are conflicting beliefs and research on whether pomegranate juice helps or worsens
diarrhea, most doctors recommend avoiding it until you are feeling better and your symptoms have subsided.
6. Anti-inflammatory
Pomegranate juice is a powerful anti-inflammatory because of its high concentration of antioxidants. It can help reduce inflammation throughout the body and prevent oxidative stress and damage.
7. Arthritis
Flavonols in pomegranate juice may help block the inflammation that contributes to osteoarthritis and
cartilage damage
. The juice is
currently being studied
for its potential effects on
osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other types of arthritis
and joint inflammation.
8. Heart disease
Pomegranate juice is in the running as the most heart-healthy juice. It appears to protect the heart and arteries. Small studies
have shown that the juice improves blood flow and keeps the arteries from becoming stiff and thick. It may also slow the growth of plaque and buildup of
cholesterol
in the arteries. But pomegranate may react negatively with blood pressure and cholesterol medications like statins.
Be sure to talk with your doctor before indulging in the juice or taking a pomegranate extract supplement.
