Have Anti-aging Properties

Pomelo may have anti-aging properties due to its high antioxidant content. Antioxidants, such as vitamin C, can help prevent skin damage caused by damaging free radicals, allowing you to look younger. Pomelo may also help to reduce the production of AGEs, which are caused by excessive blood sugar levels.

AGEs can accelerate the aging process by causing skin pigmentation, poor circulation, eyesight, and renal difficulties, particularly in persons with type 2 diabetes. However, one test-tube investigation discovered that pomelo extracts dramatically reduced the number of AGEs generated following sugar exposure. Furthermore, the essential oil extracted from the peel of a pomelo is high in antioxidants and can reduce melanin formation in the skin, thereby preventing discoloration and sunspots.
