Pomegranate may benefit skin and cells


The website AntioxidantSkincare.com details the benefits that antioxidants can have on skin. Recently, they explained the many ways in which pomegranate extract may help the skin.


The website reports that pomegranate extract may help increase the skin's collagen production. Collagen in the skin reduces the appearance of wrinkles, and gives skin a firm and youthful appearance. The site also claims that using a skin care product containing pomegranate extract may protect skin against the damaging effects of the sun. Pomegranate has been shown to possibly boost the efficacy of SPF in the skin.


Pomegranate extract may be a good source of antioxidants. According to the National Institutes of Health, antioxidants may protect your cells from toxins produced from certain foods and environmental factors. The Mayo Clinic reports that antioxidants may also help prevent diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases and Alzheimer's disease.


Women looking to protect their skin and their bodies should consider using skin care products for black skin that contain pomegranate extract.
