Human studies carried out with pomegranate-based products (juice and extract)
The consumption of pomegranate juices and extracts has long been linked to many health benefits beyond nutrition, described mainly by innumerable preclinical studies. However, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) concluded in 2010 that a cause and effect relationship could not be established be...
