Tart Cherry Inflammation Randomized TrialIf successful, such a strategy would help mitigate the plethora of health consequences associated with poor sleep.2VanderMark E (2026)CherryZZZ: A Protocol for a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Cross-Over Pilot Study Testing Tart Cherry Juice in Older Adults with Self-Reported Insomnia.
Tart Cherry Inflammation Randomized TrialIntroduction: Two small, preliminary pilot studies report that 2 weeks of daily tart cherry juice consumption (half of the dose in the morning, half of the dose at night) may increase sleep quantity (assessed via a sleep diary or 1 night of polysomnography) in older adults with insomnia.2VanderMark E (2026)CherryZZZ: A Protocol for a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Cross-Over Pilot Study Testing Tart Cherry Juice in Older Adults with Self-Reported Insomnia.
Tart Cherry Inflammation Randomized TrialA study of longer duration, with doses closer to bedtime, and daily objective monitoring of sleep via a wearable device may potentiate the observed impact of tart cherry juice intake on sleep.2VanderMark E (2026)CherryZZZ: A Protocol for a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Cross-Over Pilot Study Testing Tart Cherry Juice in Older Adults with Self-Reported Insomnia.
Tart Cherry Inflammation Randomized TrialBackground Various clinical studies have examined the effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery; however, there is a lack of a comprehensive review to assess the totality of evidence in the published literature.3Zhu Y (2026)The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review.
Tart Cherry Inflammation Randomized TrialAcross these trials, heterogeneity was found in study design; however, the majority of studies had a small sample size with a short duration of intervention.3Zhu Y (2026)The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review.
Tart Cherry Inflammation Randomized TrialFour out of 10 studies reported that Montmorency tart cherry consumption improved athletic performance with significantly shorter time to complete the exercise or longer time to exhaustion.3Zhu Y (2026)The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review.
Tart Cherry Inflammation Randomized TrialMethods A scoping review was conducted to identify and summarize relevant clinical studies that examined the effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance, post-exercise recovery of muscle strength, and delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) in healthy adults.3Zhu Y (2026)The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review.
