Ellagic acid is a polyphenolic, non-flavonoid compound naturally found in a variety of fruits, such as pomegranates, raspberries, strawberries, and grapes, and nuts, such as pistachios, pecans, walnuts, and acorns.
Researchers at Edith Cowan University (ECU) are investigating the effects ellagic acid, an antioxidant found in some fruits and vegetables, could have on halting and potentially reversing the damage caused by fatty liver disease.
