This year, a friend is a professional trainer/nutritional expert urged me to try tart cherry juice. He said
it was take away 90% of the discomfort from training and work outs and help heal injuries.
Yeh right.
I play tennis 4 times week, 2 tournaments a month, and 3 days of off court cross training/weights/yoga/biking.
Well, I started drinking it a few months ago (organic unsweetened) and I absolutely swear
that all the inflammation in my body, particularly my feet, and general aches DISAPPEARED.
There are specific chemical properties in cherries that provide these benefits:

At first I was in disbelief, but when I went off the cherry juice for a week, the same old aches reappeared.
I also just ordered tart cherry extract supplements.
