Pomegranate’s Perfection

Pomegranates have been a well known superfood due to the high amount of vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. The juice of the pomegranate is a concentrated source of three different polyphenols which are rich sources of antioxidants. Pomegranate juice is a rich source of tannins, anthocyanins, and ellagic acid, which make it a unique fruit due the particularly high amounts of these three powerful antioxidants. These attributes are linked to the prevention of cancer and heart disease. So whether you eat the seeds or enjoy the juice realize that you are doing your body a favor by consuming a nutritional powerhouse…the pomegranate!
