Pomegranate Green Tea

Green tea and pomegranate polyphenol antioxidants offer potential anti-aging benefits in conjunction with intermittent fasting, according to a study published in the April 2012 issue of the journal "Biochimica et Biophysica Acta." Researchers noted that while intermittent fasting, a form of calorie restriction, improves longevity in some animals, the practice can also induce stress. In the study, a group of animals that fasted on alternate days and consumed green tea and pomegranate antioxidant extract showed less inflammation and a longer lifespan compared to a control group that fasted on alternate days but did not consume green tea and pomegranate antioxidant extract.
