Try Cherries for Your Inflamation Fight!



The Over-Prescription and Abuse of Pain and Inflammatory Medications is One of The Biggest Problems Facing Our Healthcare System

One of the biggest problems facing our healthcare system today is the over-prescription and abuse of pain and anti-inflammatory medications.  However, most people haven’t tried some of the natural alternatives to fighting inflammation through dietary changes.  One great inflammation fighting superfood is cherries, specifically tart cherries.  Anthocyanins, which are the antioxidant compounds found in tart cherries, have been found to have inflammation fighting capabilities on par with common pain medications including aspirin. 

2 Glasses of Tart Cherry Juice a Day for 3 Weeks have Shown a Significant Decrease in Chronic Pain Caused by Common Osteoarthritis

The cherries can be eaten in their natural state or one can drink the juice as well.  Recent studies suggest that drinking 2 glasses of tart cherry juice a day for 3 weeks have shown a significant decrease in chronic pain caused by common osteoarthritis.  Also, tart cherry extract taken on a daily basis has been shown to reduce inflammation by up to 20%.  These findings are significant in regards to athletes as well as common individuals battling pain and inflammation from a myriad of conditions because they can also be used to recover from exercise-induced muscular soreness and fatigue.
