The temperatures outside are very thirsty, and this is a great time to load up on liquids (preferably water), and although some juices are loaded with additional sugars and may not be very good for health, some of them can actually benefit health in many ways.

Cherry juice is one of them because it reduces inflammation in the body and helps muscle recovery after training.

According to Harvard Medical School, chronic inflammation is linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer and arthritis, as well as diseases such as Crohn's and colitis.

Therefore, everything that can lower the inflammatory values ​​in the body is very important to us.

The Healthy website conducted an interview with Jessica Isaacs, a sports dietitian, who spoke to the specific ways in which drinking cherry juice can benefit training, muscle recovery and general inflammation.

How does cherry juice reduce inflammation?

"Cherry juice contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory polyphenol compounds—micronutrients that occur naturally in plants—that have been shown by research to accelerate recovery from strength-based exercise, reduce inflammation and muscle soreness, as well as improve muscle (breakdown) markers," Isaacs said.

Isaacs also points to two other studies to prove her point.

One of them comes from the Journal of the International Association of Sports Medicine which shows how cherry juice reduces oxidative stress (which causes inflammation in the body) and muscle and heart damage following resistance training.

The second is from the European Journal of Sports Science which concluded that tart cherry concentrate can also reduce the effects of muscle damage and improve recovery for women.

Due to the rich nutrients and antioxidants found in this juice, it can help reduce joint pain and inflammation, and reduce the symptoms of arthritis.

Cherry juice also promotes better brain health, aids sleep and even strengthens the immune system by reducing the risk of infection.

In general, the cherry has a high nutritional value, rich in vitamins, dietary fiber, antioxidants, iron, calcium and magnesium.

In addition, it is rich in anthocyanins - phytochemicals that protect against carcinogens and protect the cardiovascular system.

Cherries also contain an antioxidant called the flavonoid quercetin, which has anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties.

How much should you drink?

To get the most benefit from cherry juice, Isaacs recommends consuming cherry juice an hour after training alongside the recovery meal from training.

"The easiest way to consume enough tart cherries to reap the benefits associated with reducing inflammation would be to consume a large glass of cherry juice, cherry juice concentrate, or a pill of cherry powder. "These benefits will also apply to fresh or frozen cherries, however, the amount you would need to consume to To maximize these benefits, have at least 2 cups of cherries, consumed twice a day."
