Health Benefits of Dried Pomegranates

1) Protect the Heart - These delicious little rubies are chock-full of protective antioxidants. Studies show that the polyphenolic antioxidants found in pomegranates counteract damaging free radicals to prevent the oxidation of LDL “bad” cholesterol levels. This prevents the build-up of plaque in the arteries and protects against atherosclerosis, a precursor of cardiovascular disease. Dried pomegranates really pack a super hero punch when it comes to defending the heart.

2) Full of Fiber - Just a handful of dried pomegranates provides up to 15 percent of the daily recommended value for dietary fiber. Dried pomegranates contain both soluble and insoluble fiber. These fibers function differently in your body but each is essential for your health. Soluble fiber forms a gel in the digestive tract to slow down digestion and prevent excess cholesterol and sugar from being absorbed by the bloodstream. This type of fiber helps stabilize blood sugar levels and lowers harmful cholesterol. Insoluble fiber removes toxins from the body and keeps the digestive system functioning smoothly.
