Health tips

So you’ve heard about the plethora of pomegranate benefits, but you’re not sure what all the fuss is about. Although the pomegranate is one of the oldest fruits known to man, its recent popularity has spurred numerous studies about pomegranate health benefits. The health benefits of pomegranate juice are quite significant when regularly consumed. Pomepure wants to educate you about this incredible fruit and the benefits you will reap when you incorporate it into your regular diet.

What are some Pomegranate Health Benefits?

Antioxidants – Pomegranates are rich in antioxidants, dietary substances that prevent and repair damage to body cells by preventing the oxidative (damage from oxygen) process. As the body ages, cells naturally oxidize. Antioxidants fight this process and sustain better cell functioning in your skin and organs. Best when consumed in their unaltered, natural form, a diet rich in antioxidants may improve immune function and lower the risk of cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. Pomegranates are believed to contain more antioxidants than green tea or red wine.

Cholesterol – Studies suggest that one of the major pomegranate benefits is the fruit’s ability to lower bad cholesterol and raise good cholesterol. High cholesterol may cause the hardening of the artery walls, also known as atherosclerosis, which can lead to heart disease.

Heart – Better heart function is one of the best health benefits of pomegranate juice. Like aspirin, pomegranate juice has been shown to prevent blood platelets from clumping together and forming clots in crucial arteries. The American Journal of the College of Cardiology sites recent research claiming that a regular regimen of pomegranate juice improved the amount of oxygen reaching the heart muscle of patients with heart disease.

Cancer – Pomegranate benefits the body’s immune system. Studies on mice have suggested that pomegranate juice and compounds might prevent or slow the growth of prostate and breast cancer.

Arthritis – Research has not come to a conclusion on pomegranate health benefits associated with arthritis, but it appears that that, in some studies, arthritic tissue reacts positively to pomegranate enzymes. The tissue becomes less inflamed and the enzymes breaking down cartilage become less active.

These are just a few of the many pomegranate benefits you’ll enjoy from regularly consuming their juice. Please be aware that Pomepure is not a scientific research facility and we do not conduct our own tests. As we are simply reporting study results, we do not guarantee these results for every customer. However, there is still quite a bit of research being conducted on the matter, and hopefully the future will tell us more concrete information about this amazing fruit.

How Much Should I Drink Daily?

The recommended amount is 8 ounces. Pomepure is the best choice because we do not add artificial ingredients or coloring, and we do not dilute the juice with added sugar and water. Pomepure’s pomegranate drinks are pure juice, straight from the fruit. It’s natural as nature intended.

How Should I Incorporate It?

For starters, you can grab a quick canister of Pomepure on your way out the door in the morning. However, pomegranates are an extremely versatile fruit. Due to the benefits listed above, many people are trying to consume as much pomegranate juice as possible by adding them to cooking. The flavor of a pomegranate is such that it compliments both savory and sweet dishes. Use as a sauce over chicken or turkey, or make a pomegranate juice chocolate ganache. Pomegranate martinis are replacing the Cosmopolitan as the pink drink of choice because they’re quite refreshing.

Pomepure is an excellent resource for all your cooking and drink mixing needs. Food and drinks are only as good as the ingredients used to make them, and since Pomepure is completely natural, it’s as good as using a pomegranate (without the work of squeezing the seeds).
