Cherries are summertime treat, but
they can also help relieve the aches and pains that occur with age, or prevent
them altogether. Not only are they among the top 10 foods in antioxidant
activity, they’re also powerful anti-inflammatories (particularly the sour
variety). In fact, a study at Michigan State University found that eating tart
cherries could relieve inflammatory pain as capably as aspirin or ibuprofen,
but with less potential irritation. In addition, at just 51 calories per cup, cherries
are harmless to your beltline, and they go a long way toward satisfying your
daily requirements of five servings of fruits and vegetables.
