A 2014 University of Rhode Island Kingston study discovered that Pomella phenolics inhibit the formation of a biologically relevant oxidative stress marker called Advanced Glycation Endproducts, or AGE.
Pomella is a patented pomegranate extract from Verdure Sciences standardized to punicalagins delivering free ellagic acid in the bloodstream.
AGEs are formed when a sugar molecule attaches to DNA or other proteins, and prevents their proper function. Accumulation of AGE plays a key role in aging and some age-related chronic human diseases like type-2 diabetes and Alzheimer’s.
The study’s authors explained, “Our study suggests that pomegranate may offer an attractive dietary strategy for the prevention and treatment of AGE-related diseases such as type-2 diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease.”
