Body's response to pomegranate intake
A recent study has found that the compound urolithin A, which is produced in the body after consuming fruits such as pomegranates, beets, and berries, can improve heart function by up to 80% in experimental models of a type of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction that has limited treatment options. This form of heart failure causes the heart to become stiff and impairs its ability to fill with blood, leading to symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and a reduced quality of life. The study demonstrated that the compound promotes relaxation of the heart muscle, reduces harmful scarring and enlargement, and improves vascular performance, offering hope for treating cases of this type of heart failure. Although these results need to be confirmed through clinical trials in humans, they pave the way for developing new treatments based on natural compounds that enhance the heart's ability to relax and improve patient outcomes.
