Pomegranates are increasingly distributed and consumed worldwide
both as fresh fruit or processed products, like juices and food
supplements. The present commercial success of this fruit and its
purported health benefits are associated with an impressive
increase of scientific research published on the pomegranate. The
huge amount of new data produced every year by the scientific
community necessitates a periodic review of the results. The aim of
this book is to provide an update of the results in pomegranate
research. Each chapter is conceived as an in-depth, state-of-the
art compilation on the main topics regarding pomegranates. This is
to ensure the status of a reference manual for all the scientists
approaching different aspects of pomegranate research and to the
industrial sector in order to improve/develop the pomegranate
chain. The choice of an edited collection originates from the need
to have different specializations and a multi-disciplinary approach
to describe all the different topics related to pomegranates,
spanning from botany, chemistry, and nutrition to technology and
medical research. Topics discussed in this book include pomegranate
biodiversity and phytochemical composition of pomegranate pulp,
peels, seeds and oil; polyphenols antioxidant activity,
bioavailability and metabolism by gut microbiota; current evidence
supporting the benefits of pomegranate products in the prevention
and treatment of cardiovascular disease and cancer; allergies to
pomegranate; pomegranate processing and recovery of waste from
pomegranate juice production for their possible re-use as a source
of nutraceuticals.
