You may have heard a lot of news about tart cherry juice lately. A simple fruit with great benefits. But is any of it true? What’s the deal with tart cherry juice? Glad you asked.

What's the science behind tart cherry juice?

Tart cherry juice had long been revered for its natural benefits, so over the past 20 years, various third-party studies have been conducted to see if this superfruit is as beneficial as the rumors make it out to be. Spoiler: It’s as good, if not better than its reputation.

• In a July 2017 study, the United States Olympic Committee found that tart cherry juice lessened pain and soreness brought on by physical exertion. The same study found that tart cherry juice’s anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties promoted faster muscle recovery.
• A December 2012 study at Northumbria University in England found that “there were significant increases in total sleep time and sleep efficiency total” when participants drank tart cherry juice, due to its high levels of melatonin, the hormone which naturally regulates sleep.
• Additionally, a December 2016 study found that tart cherry juice can assist in the cellular immune response function, in part due to a natural key ingredient, nitric oxide.

These are just a few of the many studies conducted by medical, agricultural, and scientific centers that have all found one thing: tart cherry juice is great at helping you to recover faster, feel less muscle soreness, sleep better so you feel more rested, and help support your immune system.

It’s for all of these reasons that we started Cheribundi. We wanted people to have easy access to the benefits of tart cherries.
