ASK A NUTRITION PROFESSIONAL: HOW MUCH POMEGRANATE JUICE IS GOOD TO DRINK A DAY?
Expert opinion from Deidre Huysamen

There is no specific amount of pomegranate juice that is good to drink in the day. Fruit juice however, contains no fiber as this has been removed during the processing process. Therefore, fruit juice can result in excessive spikes in blood sugar levels if consumed too frequently or in excess. It is best to opt for whole fruit or a smoothie where the fiber content is still within to slow down the processing thereof in the body. This will help to prevent spikes in blood sugar levels and will help to keep you fuller for longer.

A randomized controlled clinical trial of middle-aged and elderly adults showed that consumption of 236.5 ml per day of pomegranate juice had a positive effect on the ability to learn visual information over a 12-month period. A daily intake of 500 ml can safely bring health benefits.

Drinking 8 to 12 ounces of 100% with no added sugar pomegranate juice per day is considered safe in a healthy adult patient. For example, diabetic people should consume it in a lower amount.
