Tart Cherry Sleep 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 Sleep 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 Sleep 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 Sleep Randomized TrialObservational studies also suggested possible associations between higher intake of melatonin-rich foods and favorable sleep-related outcomes, including sleep quality, circadian rhythm regulation, and reduced social jetlag, although findings were heterogeneous across populations and study designs.3Nisar T (2026)Effectiveness of Melatonin-Containing Foods on Promoting Sleep: A Scoping Review.
Tart Cherry Sleep Randomized TrialMost of the studies focused on a narrow range of foods, despite the increased availability of other melatonin-rich options that remain underexplored.3Nisar T (2026)Effectiveness of Melatonin-Containing Foods on Promoting Sleep: A Scoping Review.
Tart Cherry Sleep Randomized TrialMelatonin plays a crucial role in managing the body's sleep-wake cycle, and its natural occurrence in certain foods has generated interest in dietary interventions to improve sleep.3Nisar T (2026)Effectiveness of Melatonin-Containing Foods on Promoting Sleep: A Scoping Review.
Tart Cherry Sleep Randomized TrialThis scoping review explores the impact of consuming foods that naturally contain melatonin on various sleep quality parameters.3Nisar T (2026)Effectiveness of Melatonin-Containing Foods on Promoting Sleep: A Scoping Review.
