1. The nutritional value of the grenade
One glass of pomegranate grains delivers 144 kcal, of which 24 g is the naturally occurring sugar in fruit. Pomegranates are an excellent source of dietary fiber, vitamins C, E, K, B1 (thiamine), B3 (niacin) and B6 (pyridoxine), beta-carotene, and valuable folic acid. They provide potassium, selenium, zinc. They are also a source of organic acids, anthocyanins, and plant fungi tannins with anti-inflammatory properties.2. It's an irreplaceable punic acid
The only compound found in pomegranates is punic acid, which is a fatty acid associated with omega-5 fatty acids. I'm sure few people have heard of this type of fat acid. This acid has the strongest antioxidant properties, is the main ingredient responsible for the anti-inflammatory and health properties of Pomegranate.3. It affects the bloodstream
Many studies indicate comprehensive benefits for the heart and blood vessels. After two weeks of consuming a small amount of pomegranate or its juice every day, there was a significant reduction in blood pressure. Punic acid also lowers cholesterol and triglycerides, the higher concentrations of which are one of the causes of atherosclerosis.4. It's anti-cancer
Studies at the University of California, Berkeley indicate that punic acid inhibits the growth of prostate cancer cells, reduces PSA levels (the growth of this antigen produced by the prostate gland is used in prostate-cancer screening), and weakens metastatic factors. Other studies have confirmed its inhibitory effects on breast, colon, and leukemia.5. Treatment and prevention of type 2 diabetes
as a potent antioxidant, it reduces oxidative stress caused by high blood sugar.6. It relieves the symptoms of arthritis and joint pain
Studies confirm that the pomegranate extract blocked the enzyme responsible for inflammation in the joints.7. Reduces the risk of Alzheimer's
The cause of this disease is still not fully understood, only a small percentage of cases are genetic, while the remainder are thought to be caused by inflammation, free radicals damaging cell membranes, and accumulation of heavy metals.
