Pomegranate compound improves cardiac performance by up to 80% in models.
Tests on models showed that a compound produced by the body from pomegranates and berries led to an improvement of up to 80% in cardiac performance. Researchers at King's College London found urolithin A helps stiff heart tissue relax and reduces scarring. Ultimately, this has the potential to assist approximately 500,000 individuals across the UK who are living with a challenging type of heart failure.
