ANTIOXIDANT-RICH TART CHERRIES Tart cherries are filled with antioxidants & phytonutrients that help with weight loss, inflammation, and disease prevention. Cherries get their bright red pigmentation from anthocyanins, an amino acid that can help to protect the body from harmful pathogens that promote diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Cherries also contain melatonin, which has anti-aging benefits and helps promote better sleep. Cherries are packed with vitamins & nutrients to help lower cholesterol, promote heart health, and improve mental functioning. Athletes also commonly drink tart cherry juice to combat joint pain and muscle soreness.
