The power of pomegranates and the polyphenol antioxidants that fight free radicals.
Super fruit with super power.
We’ve all heard about antioxidants and how important they are to include in our diet through whole, natural foods. Here we take a deeper look at what makes antioxidants in pomegranates so unique.
The antioxidants within pomegranates, and of course POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice, are called polyphenols. Polyphenols are a type of antioxidant known to combat unstable molecules that can cause damage to your cells over time. These harmful molecules are called free radicals. And they’re POM’s nemesis.
Though the human body does a good job of handling normal levels of unstable molecules, things like smoking, stress and other environmental pollutants can contribute to the generation of even more free radicals.
Which means, unless you live in a bubble, everyone can benefit from the antioxidant power of POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice.
POM and Polyphenols: The Inside Scoop
A variety of polyphenol antioxidants is in every pomegranate. The deep red arils have anthocyanins, while the rind and white pith surrounding the arils have ellagitannins. POM Juice is the perfect way to get the fighting power of both. To maximize the polyphenol level, POM Wonderful 100% Pomegranate Juice is made by pressing the entire pomegranate, so that each 16oz bottle contains the juice from four whole-pressed pomegranates. That means there’s antioxidant goodness in every bottle.

Or mix POM with seltzer for an afternoon pick-me-up or for an evening mock-tail. So drink up! Your body and mind will thank you.
