Both sweet and tart cherries and cherry juice have long been used traditionally as a remedy for gout. Both sweet and tart cherries contain phenolics, naturally-occurring plant compounds that have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant effects. Tart cherry anthocyanins (giving them their bright red hue) are used for conditions involving inflammation and pain, such as arthritis, gout, muscle pain, back pain, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases. Tart cherry also has compounds that contribute to a healthy heart and fight cancer, especially breast cancer and certain forms of skin and liver cancer.
