Benefit Of Cherry

Keeping Inflammation at bay is what cherries do best. Thats because they contain anthocyanins, antioxidants whose anti-inflammatory effects may help reduce pain. As a rule, the darker the cherry’s color, the higher the anthocyanin content.

The smallest of the stone fruits is also beneficial as a natural source of melatonin, an antioxidant hormone that helps regulate biorhythms and sleep patterns.
