As you may know, I love trying out and drinking a wide range of juices - fruit juice, vegetable juice, smoothies etc. One of the nice things about blogging is the chance to sample something that is new to the market or at least new to me :) And recently I had the chance to try out CherryActive.
CherryActive is 100% concentrated Montmorency cherry juice. It has no added preservatives, sugar, sweeteners, flavourings or colourings. Just pure concentrate of Montmorency cherries! A 210ml bottle is typically made from the concentrated juice of over 650 Montmorency cherries. Phew! That's quite a lot of cherries, isn't it? The product aids in sports recovery and also adds to your antioxidant intake. But the main reason I was keen to try out CherryActive was because it is said to reduce muscle soreness and also helps you get good sleep.
The Montmorency cherries used in CherryActive are a rich source of anthocyanins that possess natural, anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps to maintain healthy, comfortable joint function. Regular consumption of the product is also said to improve quality and quantity of sleep as Montmorency cherries are high in naturally-occurring melatonin which is needed to regulate healthy sleep cycles.
Each 210ml bottle makes two litres of diluted juice. You need to mix 30ml of the concentrate with half a pint of fresh water. I have had it as a drink with iced water, at times with sparkling water as a delicious treat. I have also tried it with a bowl of yoghurt. At first you might find the taste a bit strong - a bit 'tart' - like cherries obviously, but you begin to enjoy the taste soon. I have been trialling these for a few weeks now and while I haven't seen any major difference in muscle recovery after exercising, I am enjoying it as a refreshing beverage. Considering that it has no added preservatives, sugar, sweeteners, flavourings or colourings; I do not see any reason why this cannot be enjoyed as a healthy supplement drink.
You can read more about CherryActive’s full product range and about the health benefits of Montmorency cherries online on the CherryActive website. CherryActive Concentrate is available from over 1,000 health and sports nutrition shops across the United Kingdom and can be purchased online as well.

Mmmm....I adore cherry - and though I've been very good lately at cutting out artificial foods and drinks, I can't help but think this would be lovely in diet coke - just a dash for a treat :-) This product of course is lovely and natural - the coke however is not ;-)
