Benefits of Pomegranate
Pomegranate is a thick skinned super seedy
fruit, with a brilliant red hue which is now touted as a wonder fruit by
scientific researchers. The name pomegranate derives from the French word
“pomegranate” or seeded apple. hey are believed to have originated in Iran and where
it was not only revered as an important food source but was also widely used
for its medicinal value. Drinking pomegranate juice benefits our health and
skin in a myriad of ways. It is one of the few fruits whose juice is as
beneficial as the fruit itself.
This is because the peel contains the maximum
amount of antioxidants which are released in abundance when the fruit is
squeezed while juicing. A single glass of pomegranate juice can provide you with
40 % of the daily requirement of folic acid and vitamins A, C, and E. Freshly
squeezed pomegranate juice, being completely unprocessed, triumphs over
packaged juice any day, as it retains the maximum number of vitamins..
Make sure that the juice is unsweetened as sugar being inflammatory can
counteract some of the health benefits of this fruit.
