Benefits of Cherries
Cherries are a great source of vitamins A and C for immune health and vitamin K for bone and blood health.
Cherries are also a great source of polyphenols, powerful antioxidants that fight cellular damage. These antioxidants also help with lowering inflammation in the body. Polyphenols help to reduce risks of diseases like heart disease and can help fight off cancers!
These tart stone fruits can also help with muscle recovery and reduce muscle pain! With recovery comes better performance, so make sure to take your cherries after that hard workout.
The amazing antioxidants in cherries may also help with improving heart health. Their high potassium content carries away salt, regulating blood pressure and protecting the heart.
Cherries also help to reduce uric acid, a waste product in the blood that can cause inflammation. Reduced uric acid has been shown to improve gout and ease arthritic pain.
Melatonin is our sleep hormone, and you guessed it, cherries are a great source. Better sleep is on its way with a diet that includes cherries.
