Pomegranate peel

Pomegranate peel is the thick, leathery outer covering of the pomegranate fruit, which is scientifically known as Punica granatum. This peel is typically a deep red or purplish color, though it can also be yellow or green depending on the variety and ripeness of the fruit. Unlike the juicy seeds inside, the peel is tough and inedible in its raw form. However, it is rich in bioactive compounds such as antioxidants, flavonoids, and tannins, which have various health benefits. The peel is often dried and ground into a powder for use in traditional medicine, skincare products, and dietary supplements. It is known for its potential anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anti-cancer properties. Additionally, the pomegranate peel is sometimes used in culinary applications to add flavor and nutritional value to dishes. Despite its bitterness, the peel's health-promoting qualities make it a valuable component of the pomegranate fruit.
