Pomegranate Juice & Cholesterol: What Research Shows

Pomegranate Research Guide

Pomegranate products have been studied in relation to blood lipids and cardiovascular biomarkers, but human findings are mixed.

The evidence does not support describing pomegranate juice as a cholesterol-lowering treatment, and a study using an extract or specific juice preparation should not automatically be applied to every pomegranate product.

The Short Answer

Use pomegranate as a food choice, not as a substitute for cholesterol evaluation or prescribed treatment.

What Researchers Measure

Trials may measure LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, oxidized LDL or other biomarkers. A change in one marker is not the same as demonstrating reduced cardiovascular disease risk.
