What are polyphenol antioxidants?
Pomegranates and pomegranate juice contain polyphenols. Polyphenols are known to be natural antioxidants. The health benefits associated with POM Wonderful pomegranate juice are due to its very high levels of polyphenols - powerful antioxidants that are important as part of a balanced diet. There are thousands of different polyphenols in the plant world. Plants contain thousands of different kinds of compounds that are grouped into families. Polyphenols are one such family. Many polyphenols are active in the body, providing benefits such as antioxidant activity. This antioxidant activity is directly related to their chemical structure so not all antioxidants are created equal. Tannins (particularly punicalagin), anthocyanins, ellagic acid and gallic acid are all types of polyphenols that are found in pomegranates and pomegranate juice.

Does POM Wonderful pomegranate juice contain Vitamin C?
No, POM Wonderful does not contain Vitamin C. Vitamin C is very fragile, and the pasteurization process unfortunately eliminates all Vitamin C from our juices. Because we want to offer a 100% natural juice, we choose not to "add back" other sources of Vitamin C, as many other juices do. Right from the beginning, we knew that the special thing about our juice is that it contains very high levels of antioxidants called polyphenols. POM Wonderful pomegranate juice should be enjoyed as part of a healthy, balanced diet and drinking pomegranate juice does in no way negate or replace the need for Vitamin C.
