Key Functions & Health Benefits
- Rich in anthocyanins and phenolic compounds.
- Flush uric acid out from body.
- Reduce the plasma uric acid concentrations.
- Anti-inflammatory.
How It Works
It helps to reduce uric acid by increase the excretion, and also suppres the expression of NFkB, cytokines, and enzymes cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 activities to reduce inflammation.
Clinical Evidences
This study investigated the effects of tart cherry consumption on inflammation and oxidative stress markers. Forty-eight participants were randomly assigned to six groups, receiving tart cherry in juice (240 ml) or capsule (480 mg) form, either once or twice daily for 48 hours. Results showed a significant reduction in uric acid (UA) levels, with the most effective decrease occurring after a single capsule dose (lasting up to 24 hours). The findings suggest that a single powdered capsule is the most effective formulation for lowering UA, making it a suitable option for those who prefer to avoid tart cherry juice.
Potential Side Effects
- Diarrhea or upset stomach if overdose.
Other Information
The use of cherry extract for gout is mentioned in CPG Management of Gout (2nd Edition).
