The pomegranate, good for cancer prevention
-
The pomegranate is a special piece of fruit. Unlike many other fruits, this fruit has hundreds of tiny spheres inside, each containing one tiny seed. You can eat these balls including the seed. Pomegranate is a nice fresh fruit. Funny fact is that the fresh fruit juice is even healthier than the fruit itself; it is more often the other way around.
Healing power of pomegranate
-
The pomegranate is one of the healthiest fruits there is. It is an important fruit against cancer in phytotherapy. It contains a lot of vitamin C. In addition, it contains many polyphenols. These have a strong antioxidant effect. Scientific research has shown that polyphenols fight cancer. In addition, polyphenols have an anti-inflammatory effect. This anti-inflammatory effect ensures, among other things, that cholesterol cannot oxidize and adhere to the blood vessel walls. That is why the pomegranate counteracts atherosclerosis (arteriosclerosis) and myocardial infarction. Polyphenols also act as a blood pressure reducer. You can prevent cardiovascular disease through insights into nutrition such as this bright red fruit. In addition, polyphenols are effective in preventing Alzheimer's disease. The phytonutrients polyphenols are in green tea

Pomegranate juice
-
Nowadays you can also buy pomegranate juice in the supermarket. This juice is just as healthy as the fruit itself. Normally juice is a little less healthy because a lot of pulp is thrown away. In the case of pomegranates, they are also high in antioxidants
Fruit as a food supplement
-
There is a supplement for sale containing the active ingredients of this medicinal fruit. This may work very well during a disease process. To take it preventively, it is better to provide the body with the fresh fruit in order to obtain active substances. The major disadvantage of supplements is that the body no longer converts substances itself. This puts this mechanism inoperative. The immune system becomes too 'lazy' to produce certain substances because they come in automatically through a supplement. When a supplement is stopped, a deficiency can occur because the body has forgotten to absorb the necessary substances such as natural antioxidants from a pomegranate.
