4 Pomegranate Benefits Especially Good for Women Going Through Menopause
When menopause begins, women experience a significant drop in estrogen levels. Pomegranates are known to be especially beneficial for menopausal women because they are rich in plant-based estrogen. Most of this estrogen is found in the seeds, so it’s best to consume the seeds either by chewing them or blending the whole fruit. But are pomegranates only good for women? Let’s explore the wide range of health benefits packed in this nutrient-rich fruit.
Four Major Health Benefits of Pomegranates
-
Improves Digestion
Pomegranates are high in dietary fiber, which helps regulate bowel movements and promotes gut health. They are effective in relieving constipation and digestive discomfort, and they may also reduce the risk of stomach and intestinal disorders. Additionally, they help calm inflammatory bowel conditions such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis by reducing inflammation in the gut and improving digestion. -
Enhances Fertility
Pomegranates can boost fertility in women by strengthening the uterine lining and reducing the risk of miscarriage. They improve blood flow to the uterus and are rich in antioxidants that support reproductive health. Furthermore, pomegranates are loaded with important nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin E, and folic acid, making them beneficial for women trying to conceive as well as those already pregnant, in supporting fetal development. -
Promotes Hair Growth
As women age, maintaining long hair can be challenging due to hair damage or hair loss, which can be a source of stress. The antioxidants and estrogen-like compounds found in pomegranates help strengthen hair follicles and improve blood circulation to the scalp. This not only supports faster hair growth but also helps maintain healthy, strong hair. -
Improves Skin Health and Slows Aging
Pomegranates contain a variety of nutrients, including vitamin C, B vitamins, potassium, polyphenols, and estrogen compounds, that help combat aging. The estrogen in pomegranates promotes collagen production, which helps maintain skin elasticity and prevent signs of aging. Vitamin C helps regulate sebum production, which can reduce acne. The antioxidants in pomegranates protect skin cells from damage caused by aging and UV exposure, and also help soothe skin conditions like acne and eczema.
In addition, the lycopene found in red-colored fruits like pomegranates also supports prostate health in men, making this fruit beneficial not only for women but for men as well.
