Pomegranate

Pomegranates are often regarded as a "superfood". They are abundant in antioxidants and polyphenols, which help in the fight against oxidative stress, which can lead to disease. To receive the fiber benefits, eat pomegranates with the seeds.

One pomegranate also includes 46.2 micrograms (mcg) of vitamin K, which is part of the recommended daily requirement of 80 mcg. This vitamin is necessary for healthy blood cells and strong bones. According to one comprehensive research on the health benefits of pomegranates, they contain anti-inflammatory properties and may help protect against brain diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. This might be due to the high levels of polyphenols found in pomegranates. Pomegranates may also inhibit the development of human prostate cancer cells, according to the research discussed in this review.
