Pomegranate delivers powerful anti-inflammatory effects through punicalagins and ellagic acid that reduce oxidative stress, lower blood pressure, and protect against chronic inflammation.
Punicalagins
-1.2
Unique polyphenols with antioxidant activity three times higher than green tea, reducing inflammatory markers and protecting cells from damage.
Ellagic acid
-0.8
Metabolized into urolithins that suppress NF-kB activation and reduce inflammatory gene expression in multiple tissues.
Anthocyanins
-0.5
Red pigments that inhibit inflammatory cytokine production and improve endothelial function.
This score is ingredient-based and weighted by DII-inspired evidence. Foods with added sugar, refined starches, and heavy processing trend higher; foods with fiber, omega-3, and polyphenols trend lower.
Pomegranate arils are low FODMAP in servings up to half a cup, though juice concentrate may be high FODMAP.
