Cherry Juice May Ease Muscle Pain
(HealthDay News, 6/20/06)

Researchers at the University of Vermont in Burlington had 14 subjects exercise by flexing and tensing the muscles in one arm 20 times daily for a week. The volunteers drank either cherry juice (containing juice from over 50 cherries), a cherry/apple beverage or a non-cherry drink. The investigators found that participants drinking cherry juice experienced less pain and gained more muscle strength than the other subjects. Scientists speculate that the antioxidants in the juice may reduce exercise-induced aches.
