We’re big on the antioxidants here at Simple Sugars and the pomegranate is one of the most serious polyphenol heavy-hitters of all time. Ellagic acid is the polyphenol antioxidant found in high quantities in pomegranates, and it’s good stuff! It’s the antioxidants that smack down those damaging free radicals which cause fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots, and other signs of aging. Some studies have even shown that topical use of pomegranate extract my actually protect against sun damage. In other words; it’s ALL good!
