Cherries:
A Nutrition Powerhouse

Research indicates that Montmorency tart cherries may help reduce inflammation related to arthritis and gout

For decades, people with arthritis and gout have consumed Montmorency tart cherry juice for relief of symptoms dash even though many of the evidence was anecdotal, and some people dismissed the soothing claims as folklore.

 

Now this hard science to back it up. Touch areas are one of the highest sources of phenolic compounds, specifically anthocyanins, which have been shown to fight inflammation dash even as much as some pain medications. And fact, some researchers have concluded that Montmorency tart cherries have more inflammation fighting potential than any other food.

A look at the evidence

Reduces inflammation. University of Memphis researchers found that 8 ounces of 100% tart cherry juice - equivalent to about 50 tart cherries - consumed daily for four weeks helped reduce inflammation associated with many chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity.

 

Reduces uric acid levels. Excess uric acid in the blood is the culprit behind the excruciating pain of a gout attack. When participants drank 8 ounces of 100% Montmorency tart cherry juice daily for four weeks they experienced lower levels of uric acid in their blood, which is a biomarker for information and risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

 

Lowers risk of gout attacks. Patients with gout who consumed Montmorency tart cherries over a two-day period showed a 35% lower risk of gout attacks compared to no intake. The risk of gout attacks was 75% lower when Montmorency tart cherry intake was combined with the uric acid reducing drug allopurinol.

 

Manages osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is a common disorder affecting 70 million North Americans. Oregon Health & Science University found that participants who drank 10.5-ounce bottles of Montmorency tart cherry juice twice daily for 21 days experienced a significant reduction in serum biomarkers of inflammation. They concluded that Montmorency tart cherry juice may be an effective way for osteoarthritis patients to manage their disease.

What you can do:

Replace the juice you're currently drinking with Tru2U Montmorency Tart Cherry juice. All forms of Montmorency tart cherries have anti-inflammatory benefits, but on a per-serving basis, Montmorency tart cherry juice concentrate was found by researchers to have the greatest anti-inflammatory activity.

​

With millions of people looking for ways to naturally manage pain it's promising that Montmorency tart cherries can help, without the possible side effects often associated with arthritis medications. I'm intrigued by the potential for a real food to offer such a powerful anti-inflammatory benefit dash especially for active adults.

How do Anthocyanin Antioxidants work?

There is substantial scientific research linking Montmorency Tart Cherries to an array of important health benefits.

  

Montmorency Tart Cherries are one of the richest sources of powerful

antioxidants called anthocyanins. Anthocyanins give Montmorency

cherries their deep distinctive rich ruby-red colour and belong to a

large group of phenolic compounds called flavonoids, naturally

found in cherries.

​

Research conducted at Michigan State University found that

Montmorency Tart Cherries contained the highest concentrations

of anthocyanins 1 and 2, which help block enzymes in the body

popularly known as COX-1 and COX-2.

 

Some pain medications work by inhibiting COX-1 and COX-2,

which may explain why some people find that Montmorency Tart

Cherries naturally help to ease and soothe the symptoms of

arthritis and gout.
