It contains puninic acid, an omega 3 fatty acid that is an excellent remedy for dry skin especially during the onset of winter. The acid hydrates and moisturises dry skin naturally.

4). IT COMBATES INFLAMMATION FROM ACNE BREAKOUTS :- 🍁🍁🍁

Skin problems like acne and pimples are most common in today's time.Dirt and pollution are the main reasons behind it.
A pimple forms when bacteria infects the oil glands of the skin. When this occurs, the body sends white blood cells called neutrophils to the site of the pimple; when these neutrophils digest the bacteria, they die mix with the bacteria and other debris in the pimple. This whole process also triggers inflammation, which is what is responsible for zits’ red, swollen appearance. “The antioxidants in pomegranates will help to reduce that inflammation,” says Dr. Marmur.

5). IMPROVES DIGESTION & TREAT ACNE AND PIMPLES :- 🍁🍁🍁

Since it’s a rich source of Vitamin C, pomegranates can also be used externally. The Vitamin C in this fruit acts as an anti-inflammatory and anti-septic agent. When consumed internally, it helps repair the damage by facilitating the growth of skin cells. When applied externally, it helps skin that’s damaged by acne and pimples.

Acne is caused due to digestive problems or hormonal imbalance. Pomegranate, being a rich source of vitamin C, can regulate the production of sebum, an oily substance secreted by your skin which is the root cause of pimples. It also corrects digestive problems, thus promoting healthy blood circulation in the body. You can apply pomegranate juice on the areas affected by pimples. This will prevent acne and scars by generating tissues in the affected area.

6). PROTECT AGAINST THE SUN AND ENVIRONMENT :- 🍁🍁🍁

Sun rays are harmful as they contain Ultra violet radiations or rays.Pollution is increasing day by day and has given rise to many skin problems too. Overexposure to harmful UV rays and pollution causes oxidative damage to our skin cells, and can increase one’s risk of developing wrinkles, age spots, sunburn and even cancer. According to Dr. Marmur, the antioxidants (namely polyphenols) found in pomegranates help to protect our cells from such oxidative stress. Pomegranate-derived products have also been found to play a vital role in repairing DNA damage.

7). IT STIMULATES COLLAGEN

PRODUCTION :- 🍁🍁🍁

As we age, our skin starts developing fine lines and wrinkles.With ageing, skin also becomes dry.Our skin naturally begins to sag and lose firmness as we grow older. Pomegranates are full of ellagic acid, an antioxidant that has shown promising results in reducing collagen breakdown. Dr. Marmur says, “If you think of having a pillow and all the fluffy stuff goes flat, that happens to the skin when you lose collagen and elastin. Pomegranates help to plump up skin and boost your blood supply to get rid of that tired look.” By stimulating collagen-producing cells called fibroblasts, Dr. Jaliman says that pomegranates can help to minimize skin wrinkle activity.

Vitamin C for collagen
Pomegranates are a rich source of Vitamin C, which in turn help to build collagen in your skin. Enzymes from pomegranates slow down the breakage of collagen. Since collagen is the protein responsible for your skin’s age, the more pomegranates you add to your diet, the better the chances of your skin looking younger and healthier!

Collagen is the basic building block of our skin and the key protein that maintains firm, smooth, perky skin. Special compounds in pomegranates not only inhibit enzymes that break down collagen, but also extend the life of fibroblasts (the cells that produce collagen and elastin) to support skin’s integrity and improve skin elasticity.

8). SKIN REPAIR :- 🍁🍁🍁

Keratinocytes for skin regeneration
Pomegranates score high when it comes to maintaining your skin’s health. It promotes the growth of keratinocytes, which constitute the outer layer of your skin. And the more the keratinocytes, the better the chances of your skin repairing and regenerating itself better.

If you drink pomegranate juice daily or eat a lot of pomegranate seeds, then you may be slowing the aging process. Pomegranates may be linked to a reduction of wrinkles and fine lines caused by excess skin exposure because of their ability to regenerate the skin and prevent hyperpigmentation.

Pomegranate’s powerful antioxidants fight and repair free-radical damage from the sun and environmental factors that age skin, including hyperpigmentation and age spots. Anthocyanidins, ellagic acid, and punicalagin work in harmony to increase microcirculation to renew cells, prevent and smooth wrinkles, and boost the production our body’s own built-in antioxidants for age-defying action.

10). IMPROVES TEXTURE OF THE SKIN :- 🍁🍁🍁

Pomegranates may lengthen the life of fibroblasts, the proteins that are responsible for the production of collagen and elastin, two tightening agents in the skin. You can prevent the breakdown of collagen and elastin by drinking pomegranate juice daily.

11). PREVENTS SKIN CANCER :- 🍁🍁🍁

Pomegranate contains anthocyanins and hydrolysable tannins, both of which possess strong antioxidant and anti-tumor promoting properties, so when pomegranate juice is ingested and applied directly to the skin, it may inhibit the growth of skin cancer.

Pomegranates are beneficial in this regard as they protect the epidermis (outer layer of the skin), and facilitate skin cell regeneration in the epidermis and dermis (inner layer).

Pomegranates have long been prized for their beautifying properties and revered as a symbol of health, fertility, prosperity, and longevity. Modern science now verifies the ancient wisdom that pomegranates offer a bounty of age-defying benefits from the inside-out and the outside-in to nourish, protect, and rejuvenate skin.

● Cell Regeneration - Pomegranates protect and strengthen skin cells on the surface and regenerate cells in the deeper layers of skin. Both the fruit and the oil from its seeds strengthen the outer layers (epidermis) and repair deeper layers (dermis) of skin as well as stimulate keratinocytes (the skin cells in charge on the surface), which promotes cellular regeneration big-time.

● Anti-Inflammatory - Inflammation can wreak havoc on your skin and lead to premature aging. Pomegranates contain champion anti-inflammatory compounds, including a bevy of polyphenol antioxidants.
