Drink tart cherry juice to improve exercise performance
Tart cherry juice is known for reducing strength loss and improving muscle recovery after intensive exercise, and now researchers have found that it also helps in improving exercise performance.
The meta-analysis, published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, revealed that tart cherries improved endurance exercise performance among study participants.
“The recovery benefits of tart cherry concentrate are well researched, yet evidence on performance enhancement is scarce and results have been mixed,” said study co-author Philip Chilibeck from the University of Saskatchewan in Canada.
