How it works
Anthocyanins inhibit COX enzymes and reduce pro-inflammatory prostaglandins. Antioxidant capacity reduces lipid peroxidation and reactive oxygen species that damage exercise-stressed muscle fibres.
Most evidence from tart cherry concentrate or juice (not sweet cherry). Typical dose: 480ml tart cherry juice or 30ml concentrate twice daily. High in sugar â whole cherry or supplement capsule forms available.
Dietary changes
Consider speaking to a GP, dietitian, or naturopath before making significant changes to your diet, particularly if you have an existing health condition.
