PomaPur
Carotec's PomaPur
has studies supporting cardiovascular boosting, immune supporting,
digestive health improving, muscle-boosting/recovery during exercise, and
hair growing benefits. Plus, in conjunction with hydroxytyrosol (found in
our Olive Power), PomaPur supports
endothelial function.
PomaPur
has significant clinical evidence supporting health benefits and an actual
basis for why it earns the name Pur that we will address
below.
Carotec's PomaPur
is sourced from Euromed's Organic Pomanax®, 30%
punicalagins.
Fraud in pomegranate:
Many other pomegranate products contain cheap adulterated ingredients. The
situation is so bad that reputable botanical organizations issued a warning
guidance under their "Botanical Adulterants Prevention Program."
In a scientific white paper, authors warned "Pomegranate has rapidly become
one of the most popular 'healthy' fruits, with an array of extracts
appearing in the botanical dietary supplement markets and a plethora of
juice products in the beverage industry.
There is considerable evidence that both product categories have been
subjected to adulteration with various undeclared, lower-cost exogenous
ingredients...
Possibly driven by supply/demand issues and/
or economic incentives, such fraudulent products deprive
consumers of the health benefits of pomegranate."
(emphasis added).
Carotec's PomaPur
™
is standardized to 30% punicalagins, which are important polyphenols.
Punicalagins are ellagitannins containing ellagic acid which is a
polyphenol that protects plants against UV light, viruses, bacteria and
parasites.
Ellagic acid, as a supplement ingredient, has poor bio-availability in the
body. Punicalagins are bioavailable in humans. Once ingested, punicalagins,
release ellagic acid that partly go to plasma and in part metabolized by
the stomach flora to the urolithins (helping support gastro-intestinal
health as a prebiotic).
We have known about the benefits of ellagic acid for years but knew of its
short comings as an isolated ingredient. Adulterated pomegranate products
have unusually high amounts of ellagic acid which are added to the extract: PomaPur has a high amount of
punicalagins, again, which the converts to ellagic acid in the body.
What we have found is that unscrupulous pomegranate products will spike
pomegranate extracts with cheap sources of useless ellagic acid to confuse
testing laboratories and ultimately consumers into thinking they are
getting a true pomegranate extract.
Carotec's PomaPur's
chemistry closely matches that of pomegranate juice, without excess sugar
or calories.
PomaPur
is made correctly, from start to finish: organically grown pomegranates are
grown in the Mediterranean regions of Spain under strict quality control.
The pomegranates undergo a patented eco-friendly extraction process using
ultrapure water (no solvents).
