Pomegranate Extract
In ancient Greek mythology, the pomegranate represents life and
regeneration. Its use as an herb dates back more than 3,000 years. But
contemporary science has rediscovered the pomegranate’s surprising array of
health benefits.
Numerous studies show that pomegranate is one of nature’s most
powerful antioxidants and it helps regulate oxidation. The remarkable effect of
pomegranate in dealing with various problems makes one wonder whether there is
more benefit to this fruit than just free radical suppression.
One answer may lie in the fact that pomegranate is absorbed in
the bloodstream far more efficiently than other fruit extracts. One study showed
a pomegranate extract is 95% absorbed, which is far greater than any other
polyphenol-containing fruit extract of its kind. Another reason pomegranate has
displayed such incredible clinical findings is that it contains a unique
polyphenol group called punicalagins. Punicalagins are the major players behind
the pomegranate’s antioxidant capability. These pomegranate ellagitannins can
metabolize into smaller, beneficial polyphenols such as ellagic acid.
