Pomegranates are a typical example illustrating the well-known saying: “Don’t judge something by its appearance.” Despite their hard exterior and the difficulty it often involves to open them, they have a sweet taste and provide our bodies with numerous health benefits.

So what do we know about this superfood?

1. In terms of calories, they don’t differ significantly from other fruits, as 100g of pomegranate seeds provide 83 calories.
2. Pomegranates are rich in fibre (4g per 100g), which is an integral part of the Pro-G-Diet that is used in SYMMETRIA’S nutritional programmes.
3. Pomegranates contain powerful antioxidants that combat and neutralize free radicals.
4. They also contain an array of vitamins, most importantly vitamin C, which has anti-inflammatory properties, and boosts the immune system. Pomegranates also contain B vitamins, vitamin Κ and many minerals and trace elements.

Incorporate pomegranate into your daily diet by adding it to salads, yogurt or even to your juices, giving your body a health and energy kick.
