While much of the emerging research on tart cherries is promising, most of it wasn’t performed on any single tart cherry product. That’s where CherryPharm is different. Our Natural Health Cherry Juice is the only tart cherry juice backed by multiple scientific studies, and we continue to subject our unique juices to third-party studies. 

Our uniqueness comes from CherryPharm’s exclusive juice extraction process, which was developed by Cornell University food experts. Our juice isn’t from concentrate, it goes right from the cherry into the bottle. This process creates a juice that preserves more of the delicate phytonutrients and all-important antioxidants that make tart cherries America’s Super Fruit™ One thing is clear - no other tart cherry juice can claim these distinctions, and no other brand has been so extensively tested.  And all of this healthy goodness actually tastes great, too.

READ SOME OF THE INDEPENDENT STUDIES THAT PUT
CHERRYPHARM NATURAL HEALTH JUICE TO THE TEST

Oxidative Stress and Muscle Recovery

• A 2008 study published within the Journal of Nutrition titled “Tart Cherry Juice Decreases Oxidative Stress in Healthy Older Men and Women” demonstrated that the consumption of two, 8 oz bottles of CherryPharm Natural Health Tart Cherry Juice a day markedly increased the ability to counteract oxidative challenge compared to the placebo treatment. Of the 12 patients in the study, those drinking CherryPharm Natural Health also demonstrated reduced basal urinary excretion of oxidized nucleic acids compared to the placebo group.

• A 2006 study published within in the British Journal of Sports Medicine titled “Efficacy of a Tart Cherry Juice Blend in Preventing the Symptoms of Muscle Damage” was performed on 14 male student athletes who drank 12 oz of CherryPharm Natural Health Tart Cherry Juice twice a day showed significantly less strength loss (only 3% loss of capacity of eccentric elbow flexion contractions) versus those drinking a placebo (24% loss). Those drinking the juice also reported significantly less muscle related pain as opposed to those drinking the placebo (2.4 for cherry juice vs. 3.2 for placebo)

• A 2009 study accepted for publication within the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports titled “Efficacy of Tart Cherry Juice in Reducing Muscle Damage, Inflammation and Oxidative Stress Following Marathon Running” was performed on 20 runners in the London Marathon who drank 8 oz of CherryPharm Natural Health Tart Cherry Juice twice a day. The study participants were tested for antioxidant, muscle damage, inflammation and oxidative stress markers.

  • Runners consuming Natural Health Juice had an 11% increase in their total antioxidant status (TAS) vs. the placebo group.
  • Natural Health Juice treatment had more rapid recovery of strength versus placebo.
  • The inflammation marker interluken-6 (IL-6) was 49% lower in Natural Health Juice treatment versus placebo.
  • The inflammation marker c-reactive protein (CRP) was 34% lower in Natural Health Juice treatment versus placebo.
  • The inflammation marker of uric acid levels were unchanged in the Natural Health Juice group but elevated in the placebo group.
  • The oxidative stress marker thiobarbituirc reactive substances (TBARS) remained unchanged in the group drinking Natural Health Juice but was elevated in the placebo group.

Sleep Disorders

• A pilot study on 15 subjects with insomnia has been accepted into the Journal of Medicinal Food for publication under the title “Effects of a Tart Cherry Juice Blend on Sleep in Older Adults With Insomnia: A Pilot Study”. Subjects were given two, 8 oz bottles of CherryPharm Natural Health Tart Cherry Juice for the duration of the study and demonstrated significant improvements in sleep latency (SL), wake after sleep onset (WASO) and insomnia severity index (ISI) compared to the placebo group.

Antioxidant Capacity

• When independently tested against 32 other “healthy” beverages, CherryPharm Natural Health Juice was found to have the highest total ORAC unit capacity amongst all samples. Actually, CherryPharm was found to be at least 1.4 times higher than the next highest product and over 24 times higher than the weakest product. The competitive sample included juices, teas, waters, and other “healthy” antioxidant drinks and juices from fruits like pomegranate, açaí, orange, grape, goji, blueberry, mangosteen, and other tart cherry juices.
