Pomegreat - 100% Organic Pomegranate Juice 3L

Scientifically Supported Health Benefits of Pomegranate

• Cardiovascular protection

Pomegranate juice improves endothelial function, reduces blood pressure, and lowers LDL oxidation. Clinical trials show it can reduce arterial plaque thickness and improve lipid profiles by decreasing total cholesterol and triglycerides [1,3].

• Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity

Pomegranate polyphenols suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-1β, TNF-α) and neutralize free radicals. This reduces chronic inflammation and supports cellular resilience under oxidative stress [2,4].

• Cognitive health and neuroprotection

Punicalagin and ellagic acid cross the blood-brain barrier and exhibit neuroprotective effects. In clinical studies, pomegranate juice improved memory retention and learning in older adults and reduced oxidative stress in the brain [5].

• Anti-aging and cellular repair

Polyphenols enhance mitochondrial function and reduce DNA damage markers, contributing to healthy aging. Animal studies also show telomere stabilization and increased antioxidant enzyme activity with pomegranate supplementation [6].

• Prostate and breast health

Pomegranate juice and extract inhibit cancer cell proliferation and angiogenesis in vitro. Human studies suggest potential roles in slowing prostate cancer progression and reducing PSA levels [7].

• Gut microbiota and digestion

Pomegranate polyphenols act as prebiotics and promote beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. They are metabolized into urolithins, bioactive compounds that influence gut and systemic health [8].

• Exercise recovery and muscle performance

Pomegranate juice (also mixed with other functional fruits) reduces post-exercise soreness, inflammation, and oxidative damage. Some trials show improved strength recovery and aerobic capacity in athletes [9].
