Health reasons to eat pomegranates

Pomegranate is a great antioxidant-full fruit that can be eaten as a snack, used in healthy recipes or bought as a juice. Click through for some delicious pomegrante recipes from POM Wonderful.

It can be hassley to scoop the seeds out of a fresh pomegranate, so look out for packs of seeds if you haven't got time to wrestle with the raw fruit. And POM Wonderful pomegranate juice of course comes ready to drink from the bottle. What could be easier?

Three reasons to add pomegranate to your healthy diet:

  1. Pomegranates are high in antioxidants, which help protect our bodies from 'free radicals' - molecules that cause damage over time.
  2. Pomegranates also contain a range of vitamins, including Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin K. Helping to build up your immune system, ward off colds and flu, and build strong and healthy bones.
  3. Pomegranates are a good source of minerals, in particular, iron and potassium.

Find out more about the health benefits of pomegranates.
