Pomegranate = Nutritional Powerhouse

[kind2creatures]

Pomegranates are popularly known as a nutritional powerhouse or "superfood". They are not only delicious, but they are a veritable treasure trove of health benefits.

Pomegranates contain polyphenols, one of nature's most powerful and effective antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect your body against "free-radicals", major factors in aging as well as chronic conditions like heart disease and cancer.

Phenylpropanoids, hydrobenzoic acid, flavones and conjugated fatty acids found in Pomegranates, have been recently credited with the ability to retard the migration of cancerous cells.

They are also chock-full of vitamin C, a vital nutrient that's been shown to reduce both the length and severity of colds and flu. In addition, they contain fiber, vitamin K, vitamin A and iron.

Pomegranates contain three times the antioxidants of red wine and green tea, the most of any natural food.
