Reduce inflammation
According to a study published in the Journal of Nutrition, consumption of cherries reduces inflammation associated with several conditions. Consumption of cherry juice on regular basis can reduce joint inflammation caused by arthritis and gout, suggests another study conducted by the University of Vermont.
Rich source of vitamin C and fiber
We bet you didn’t know that one-cup serving of cherries is packed with 16 percent of your daily recommended amount of vitamin C and over two grams of fiber.
Improve brain function
According to a recent research, snacking on tart cherries can boost your brain memory and can even reduce symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and Huntington's disease.
Prevent muscle damage
If you get muscle soreness post your workout routine, cherries can not only reduce the soreness but can also avert greater muscle damage in the long run. Being packed with anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants that contain anti-inflammatory properties, cherries can work as an effective remedy for aching muscles.
Aid sleep
Cherries are a natural source of melatonin, a hormone that helps control sleep. Therefore, adding cherry juice in your diet can aid sleep. According to a study published in the Journal of Medicinal Food, tart cherry juice can improve sleep in adults affected by insomnia. Image source : Getty
