The Benefits of Powerful Pomegranate

The tart but sweet fruit that some believe was the fruit that Eve tempted Adam with in the garden isn't just a good-lookin' fruit. It's full of benefits for your body, both inside and out. Add it to salads, use it as a sauce to simmer chicken in, and look for it on body care product labels. What makes it such an awesome ingredient?

It's rich in anti-oxidants, which are exactly what your skin and body needs to fight the signs of aging. Pomegranate helps to neutralize free radicals and protect your cells against oxidation.

Pomegranate sterols are extremely moisturizing. They penetrate cells deeply to nourish and plump and give you the look of radiant health.

Pomegranate has natural fruit acids that provide a gentle exfoliation effect when applied to the skin. As dead, dry skin cells are exfoliated away, fresh new skin is revealed.

It's also chock full of Vitamin C which is exactly what the skin needs in order to form new collagen and increase elasticity.

See, no wonder it's the starring element of our Essential Face Cream, and it should play a role in your diet too in order to reap all of the wonderful benefits.
