What the Research Says
Several studies have confirmed the link between eating cherries and maintaining normal blood levels of uric acid, including a study from USDA’s Human Nutrition Research Centre at the University of California, Davis which found that healthy women (ages 20 to 40 years) who consumed two servings or 280 grams of cherries after an overnight fast showed a 15 percent reduction in uric acid levels, as well as lowered nitric oxide and C-reactive protein levels. The researchers concluded that compounds found in cherries may inhibit inflammatory pathways associated with high uric acid levels.

Additional studies suggest that consumption of cherries may be beneficial for the management and prevention of inflammatory conditions. Antioxidants have been shown to scavenge nitric oxide thereby helping to maintain healthy joints.
