RESEARCH


Pomegranate Fruit vs. P40p

The key active compounds in pomegranate fruit are a group of hydrolysable ellagitanins generically called punicosides, including punicalins, punicalagins (a+b), ellagic acid glicoside and ellagic acid.

 

The P40p extract is standardized to 40% punicosides with a minimum concentration of 30% punicalagins.  Published literature has identified punicalagins as being responsible for more than 90% of the antioxidant activity of pomegranate fruit.

 

Pomegranate Fruit Facts:

Average Fruit Weight:   350g
Average Juice content:   200ml
Punicosides content / fruit unit:  40 mg
Our product P40p is standardized to 40% punicosides, therefore we could conclude:

p40p-Chart-1-1024x332

Thus, 1000mg of P40p™ provides approximately the active content of 10 pomegranates.*

p40p-Chart-2-1024x312

*Data can be used only as a reference. The extract is standardized to 40% punicosides, but the punicoside
concentration in the fruit can vary significantly depending on fruit species variety and maturation stage.
