Original: Pomegranate Compound Improves Heart Function Up to 80% in Mice With Heart Failure

The findings suggest the compound may help damaged heart muscle recover, though the results are so far limited to animal studies. Scientists caution that human trials would be needed before any treatment recommendations, but the work is drawing attention for its striking effect size.
