Phytochemical Profiling and Bioactivity Assessment of Punica granatum Peel Extracts: Implications for Health and Disease

Abstract

Punica granatum (pomegranate) peel, a major byproduct of fruit consumption, is rich in bioactive phytochemicals including
phenolics, flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids, and saponins. These compounds contribute to multiple therapeutic properties such
as antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities. Phytochemical profiling and bioactivity assessment of pomegranate
peel extracts highlight their potential implications for health and disease management.
