| Pomegranate Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | —Which populations and contexts (training status, sex and age, dietary pattern and energy availability, heat or hypoxia, and congested competition schedules) shift the balance from benefit to risk? | 3 | Mănescu Dan Cristian (2026) | Antioxidants and Exercise: A Redox-Informed Framework for Training Adaptation, Performance, and Recovery |
| Pomegranate Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | This review addresses that problem for athletes and practitioners seeking evidence-based guidance. | 3 | Mănescu Dan Cristian (2026) | Antioxidants and Exercise: A Redox-Informed Framework for Training Adaptation, Performance, and Recovery |
| Pomegranate Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | Evidence is organized by outcome domain—training adaptations versus acute performance/recovery—and analyzed through moderators that matter in real programs: class of antioxidant, dose, timing relative to key sessions, training phase, and environmental stress. | 3 | Mănescu Dan Cristian (2026) | Antioxidants and Exercise: A Redox-Informed Framework for Training Adaptation, Performance, and Recovery |

| Pomegranate Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | Background Volleyball demands frequent explosive, stretch-shortening muscle actions that elevate the risk for exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS). | 4 | Rezaei G (2026) | Individual responses to pomegranate juice on recovery from exercise-induced muscle damage in collegiate male volleyball players. |
| Pomegranate Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | Polyphenol-rich pomegranate juice (POMj) has been proposed to aid recovery, yet evidence in highly trained team-sport athletes is limited. | 4 | Rezaei G (2026) | Individual responses to pomegranate juice on recovery from exercise-induced muscle damage in collegiate male volleyball players. |
| Pomegranate Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | Results ANOVA revealed a significant main effect of time for most variables ( p -1 significantly improved from baseline within the POMj ( p = 0.002), this recovery was not statistically superior to that of the PLA ( p = 1.000). | 4 | Rezaei G (2026) | Individual responses to pomegranate juice on recovery from exercise-induced muscle damage in collegiate male volleyball players. |
