Sugars shown are total sugars (naturally occurring + added) per serving and are approximate. For fruits and dairy this is mostly natural sugar; for sweets and many cooked dishes it reflects added sugar or jaggery.
Tips to Manage Blood Sugar
Eat the arils whole — the seeds contain fiber. Avoid pomegranate juice as it concentrates sugars. Sprinkle chaat masala for a tangy twist.
