Live fermentation improves the bioavailability of the polyphenols

Studies show: Not everyone uses pomegranate juice equally well, as the composition of the intestinal flora is important for this1. In live fermentation, selected microorganisms, the use of which has a long tradition, cause a kind of natural pre-digestion with their ferments (enzymes) and thus improve bioactivity. The fruit's own sugar is broken down.

This procedure was developed by Dr. LM Jacob developed in 2004 and registered as an EU patent.

Gentle freeze-drying of pomegranate juice

The pomegranate juice is frozen after fermentation; in a second step, the water is removed from it in a vacuum at a maximum of 37 ° C. This freeze-drying process produces a powder that has a large surface area and good solubility. This is of great help for the absorption process, because only substances dissolved in the digestive juices can be absorbed. With freeze-drying, the freshness quality and the natural spectrum of secondary plant substances are optimally preserved.
