Question

Is it appropriate for children, especially a 1-year-old, to eat pomegranate seeds? I think pomegranates are quite nutritious and have been wanting to give them to my 1-year-old baby. Do you think she can eat pomegranate seeds?

Answer

Yes, they can. Pomegranate seeds are not only a good medicine for stomach ailments but also rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, with the main component being punicalagin, which can reach 70-80% in content. Pomegranate seed oil has strong antioxidant properties, which can clear human free radicals and slow down aging.
