Pomi-T® at a glance

Pomi-T® is a food supplement containing green tea, broccoli powder, turmeric powder, and pomegranate whole fruit powder. The individual components in Pomi-T® are each rich in polyphenols—natural plant-based phytochemicals that are associated with lowering risk for a number of chronic illnesses and are known for anticancer effects.

We have found only one clinical study investigating the effects of Pomi-T® on cancer outcomes. This study found a substantially slower rise in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels among men with localized prostate cancer, but no evidence to date shows any impact on disease progression or survival.
