Berries get a lot of the attention when it comes to antioxidant-rich whole foods, and for good reasons, but when it comes to fruit, pomegranate is definitely worth keeping in your rotation. The small arils that burst in your mouth with the slightly tart and slightly sweet deep red juice are full of gut supporting polyphenols and antioxidants that fight free radicals throughout the body. Pomegranate’s list of benefits is long and the fact that they brighten up just about any plate makes them a no-brainer to incorporate into your diet. When you eat the whole arils, you get plenty of fiber with each serving too, another way that they support your gut health. They’re often more in season during the winter months in the US, so make sure to add them to your grocery list soon!
