Say goodbye to skin damage and hello to a beautiful complexion. Pomegranate contains ellagic acid, vital for facilitating your skin to repair itself and helping your body to keep wrinkles at bay. It also protects your skin from the suns damaging UV rays and the formation of suns spots – think of it as your very own sunscreen! It keeps elasticity in your skin while potassium flushes toxins from the body, helping your complexion to remain smooth and glowing.
Pomegranate seeds (arils) are great for adding to salads, with rice or even in cakes and biscuits. Its juice can be added as a dressing or for make a vitamin by mixing with fresh mint leaves and ice in mineral water! So pretty too.
There are various ways to remove pomegranate seeds but it’s important to find one which suits you! It is recommended to cut the pomegranate in half. Gently push the center upwards from the outside while gripping onto the sides (as if you are trying to stretch it open). Then hit the back of the pomegranate with a wooden spoon and voila, enjoy! (And do this in the sink and make sure you remove the white membrane !)
