Effects of Tart Cherry Juice on Oxidative Stress and Inflammation

Snapshot

Effects of Tart Cherry Juice on Oxidative Stress and Inflammation: The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether antioxidant supplementation, in the form of a proprietary tart cherry juice, can reduce oxidative stress in older adults as measured by attenuation of F2-isoprostane responses to a forearm ischemia-reperfusion, and a decrease in urinary excretion products of oxidative damage. The secondary objective is to examine whether age-sensitive markers of inflammation are reduced in response to the cherry juice consumption.
