Vitamin D Muscle Soreness Meta-AnalysisObjective The aim was to conduct a systematic review combined with a meta-analysis and corroborate the certainty of evidence underpinning the effects of TC juice supplementation on physical, biochemical, and perceptual recovery markers following EIMD in trained athletes.1Daab W (2026)Effects of Tart Cherry Juice Supplementation on Recovery from Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage in Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Vitamin D Muscle Soreness Meta-AnalysisOur results revealed TC juice supplementation significantly improved MVC recovery in the main analysis across all time points (post: ES = 0.63; 24 h: ES = 1.12; 48 h: ES = 1.29; 72 h: ES = 2.14; 96 h: ES = 4.82), with substantial heterogeneity (I² 69-93%).1Daab W (2026)Effects of Tart Cherry Juice Supplementation on Recovery from Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage in Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Vitamin D Muscle Soreness Meta-AnalysisCMJ showed no significant effects post-exercise or at 24h but improved at 48 h (ES = 1.41; I² = 72%).1Daab W (2026)Effects of Tart Cherry Juice Supplementation on Recovery from Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage in Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Vitamin D Muscle Soreness Meta-AnalysisBackground Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is known to impair neuromuscular performance, provoke inflammation, and delay recovery.1Daab W (2026)Effects of Tart Cherry Juice Supplementation on Recovery from Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage in Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
