One of the most popular supplements among Life Extension members is the standardized Pomegranate Caps. Based on the unique vascular benefits of pomegranate and cocoa polyphenols, these two beneficial nutrients have now been combined into one low-cost supplement.
Chocolate contains a wide range of antioxidant compounds called polyphenols, including the procyanidins epicatechin and catechin. Research has shown that cocoa contains more antioxidant polyphenols than any other food.
Pomegranate juice is sold in a wide variety of diluted forms. Up until now, it has been difficult for consumers to know how much of a particular brand of pomegranate juice or pomegranate extract they need to approximate amounts used in published studies that have shown dramatic health benefits.
After reviewing the scientific literature, Life Extension determined punicalagins to be the most significant constituent in pomegranate. This research has led LEF to suggest a daily intake at least 78 mg of punicalagins for optimal cardiovascular health and 280-375 mg for optimal prostate health.
Taking pomegranate and cocoa extract together in a capsule form is a great way to avoid the sugar commonly found in pomegranate juice and chocolate. The 50 mg of cocoa polyphenols supplies the amount as found in about ½ a bar of dark chocolate.
