Supercharged Fruit…natural Relief for Arthritis Pain, Gout and Inflammation

Say hello to the little red fruit…and get ready for a healing surprise. Cherries, the favorite fruit of millions, have been found to offer natural relief for arthritis pain, gout and inflammation. Tart cherry juice concentrate is a supercharged way to enjoy this wonder fruit.

Tart cherries contain anthocyanins and bioflavonoids, which inhibit the enzymes Cyclooxygenase-1 and -2, and prevent inflammation in the body. These compounds have similar activity as aspirin, naproxen and ibuprofen. Further investigations revealed that daily consumption of tart cherries has the potential to reduce the pain associated with inflammation, arthritis and gout.

A person eating 20 tart cherries a day could realize antioxidant or anti-inflammatory benefits. “Twenty cherries provide 25 milligrams of anthocyanins, which help to shut down the enzymes that cause tissue inflammation in the first place, so cherries can prevent and treat many kinds of pain," says Muraleedharan Nair, the lead researcher on the cherry project at Michigan State University. The anthocyanins also may protect artery walls from the damage that leads to plaque build up and heart disease. In fact, the latest research shows that anthocyanins do a better job of protecting arteries than vitamins C and E.”

A convenient way to consume a daily dose of cherries is through tart cherry juice concentrate. The versatility offered by the concentrate allows it to be mixed with water, soda, oatmeal and even ice cream. The delicious possibilities are endless.
