Punicalagins and the POMELLA® Natural Spectrum
Punicalagins (anomeric isomers of the punicalagin molecule) are the major players behind the antioxidant properties of pomegranate. These pomegranate ellagitannins are ‘polyphenol bombs’ which extensively metabolize and are native in high concentrations unique to pomegranate fruit. Thus, they are the suitable biomarkers for a pomegranate extract whose natural phenolic profile is researched to offer tangible health benefits.
Punicalagins are 100% water-soluble, highly bioavailable, and supported by safety data. They are shown to possess a high absorption rate of up to 95%. And not only do punicalagins offer a powerful kick of antioxidant properties on their own; they can break-up into smaller polyphenols that are also absorbed into the body, and extensively metabolized.

In fact, metabolites of punicalagins have been detected in the body through 48 hours after consumption.
But while studies show punicalagins are the major pomegranate players, it is the remarkable synergy of punicalagins within the pomegranate’s natural spectrum that explains the potency of POMELLA® Extract. To demonstrate this, isolated compounds from POMELLA were compared to a mixture that is the foundation of POMELLA® technology. This mixture showed greater antioxidant and cellular health benefits than the isolated compounds by themselves. And the clinical literature reflects this synergy; this profile is the true essence of POMELLA® Extract.
