| Tart Cherry Recovery Randomized Trial | Background 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. | 3 | Zhu Y (2026) | The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review. |
| Tart Cherry Recovery Randomized Trial | Across these trials, heterogeneity was found in study design; however, the majority of studies had a small sample size with a short duration of intervention. | 3 | Zhu Y (2026) | The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review. |
| Tart Cherry Recovery Randomized Trial | Four 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. | 3 | Zhu Y (2026) | The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review. |
| Tart Cherry Recovery Randomized Trial | Methods 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. | 3 | Zhu Y (2026) | The effect of Montmorency tart cherry consumption on athletic performance and post-exercise recovery in healthy adults: a scoping review. |
| Tart Cherry Recovery Randomized Trial | Polyphenol-rich tart cherry (TC) supplementation has previously been shown to enhance recovery from exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). | 4 | Sabou V (2026) | Tart cherry supplementation causes differential regulation of skeletal muscle proteome after eccentric exercise. |
| Tart Cherry Recovery Randomized Trial | However, no studies have investigated the effects of different doses of TC supplementation on such recovery. | 4 | Sabou V (2026) | Tart cherry supplementation causes differential regulation of skeletal muscle proteome after eccentric exercise. |
