Vitamin C in Pomegranates:
Pomegranate is a good source of vitamin C. Vitamin C is necessary for natural skin growth and freshness of skin. Pomegranate helps absorb iron through the intestine. Vitamin C regulates sebum production and growth of the cells and hair follicles.
Iron in Pomegranate:
Iron is a constituent part of hemoglobin that helps absorb the oxygen. If your blood does not contain enough hemoglobin, you may have anemia or iron deficiency. Anemia greatly affects your overall skin texture and color. It is obvious that skin cells are nourished by blood when they carry nutrients. If blood is weak and has no sufficient hemoglobin to absorb oxygen, the skin cells will be deprived of oxygen. As a result skin will turn pale and unsmooth having acne and wrinkles.
Pomegranates are rich in iron and builds hemoglobin. It is observed that continuous use of hemoglobin makes your skin smooth, fresh, supple and gives fair complexion.
Origin:
The pomegranate is native from Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and was cultivated and naturalized over the whole Mediterranean region since ancient times. It is widely cultivated throughout India and the drier parts of southeast Asia, Malaya, the East Indies and tropical Africa. |
