Black Currant Extract Exercise Performance Randomized Trial() found that New Zealand blackcurrant extract alleviated muscle soreness 24–48 h post-exercise, accelerated the recovery of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), and resulted in lower CK levels at 96 h.1Hu Xuanming (2026)Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis
Black Currant Extract Exercise Performance Randomized Trial() observed reduced pain at 48–72 h post-exercise, recent systematic reviews still conclude that the evidence regarding its effects on muscle damage, inflammation, subjective recovery, and functional performance exhibits marked heterogeneity.1Hu Xuanming (2026)Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis
Black Currant Extract Exercise Performance Randomized Trial8 10 8 12 14 At the level of evidence synthesis, several traditional meta-analyses have attempted to summarize the overall effects of polyphenols on EIMD recovery; however, they present two core methodological limitations (–).1Hu Xuanming (2026)Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis
Black Currant Extract Exercise Performance Randomized Trial1 2 Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is a common physiological response following strenuous or unaccustomed exercise.1Hu Xuanming (2026)Effects of polyphenol-rich interventions on the time-course of muscle recovery and athletic performance following exercise-induced muscle damage: a three-level meta-analysis

Black Currant Extract Exercise Performance Randomized TrialConclusions : BRJ may improve time to peak power and handgrip strength; however, low- to very-low-certainty evidence does not support its routine use to enhance short-distance or repeated-sprint performance.1Eroglu MN (2026)The Effects of Beetroot Juice Supplementation on Performance and Fatigue During Single and Repeated Sprints: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Black Currant Extract Exercise Performance Randomized TrialBackground/Objectives : Beetroot juice (BRJ), a dietary nitrate source, may enhance high-intensity intermittent exercise, but its effects on single- and repeated-sprint performance remain unclear.1Eroglu MN (2026)The Effects of Beetroot Juice Supplementation on Performance and Fatigue During Single and Repeated Sprints: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
