Cherry Concentrate 10:1, 750 mg: Muscle Recovery, Comfortable Joints and Antioxidant Protection – Concentrated Cherry Extract for Balanced Inflammation and Daily Vitality

Cherry Concentrate, 750 mg, NOW Foods is a concentrated dietary supplement, formulated to support post-effort recovery, joint comfort and antioxidant protection through a powerful cherry extract (Prunus maximowiczii) in the form of 10:1 concentrate. Each serving provides 1.5 g (1,500 mg) of fruit concentrate, equivalent to a significant amount of raw material, offering a rich intake of natural phytonutrients associated with beneficial effects on functional inflammation, oxidative stress and tissue repair. Cherries are recognized in nutrition for their content of polyphenols, anthocyanins and other bioactive compounds that can support the body during periods of physical demand, joint discomfort or exposure to oxidative stress.

In modern life, oxidative stress and low-grade inflammation can increase due to processed diet, sedentary lifestyle, insufficient sleep and intense effort. This can be reflected in post-effort muscle soreness, morning joint stiffness, post-workout sensitivity or sensation of "tired body" after busy days. Concentrated cherry extract is appreciated precisely for its ability to support a balanced inflammatory response and to contribute to body recovery through natural antioxidants, without overloading metabolic systems.

The 10:1 concentrate indicates a high degree of concentration, which means that 10 parts of fruit were used to obtain 1 part of extract, resulting in a higher density of active compounds compared to regular fruit consumption. This formula is suitable for active people, recreational athletes, people with repeated physical effort or those seeking joint comfort and general resilience.

Detailed Benefits of Cherry Concentrate (Prunus maximowiczii) 10:1

 

• Supporting muscle recovery and reducing post-effort discomfort

After intense physical effort, muscles can present microlesions and a natural inflammatory response that manifests through muscle soreness, stiffness and sensitivity. In addition, effort increases free radical production, which can prolong recovery and can amplify the sensation of muscle fatigue.

Cherries are rich in anthocyanins and polyphenols, compounds that can support the body in managing oxidative stress and functional inflammation. Cherry Concentrate 10:1 can contribute to:
✅ faster recovery after workouts and repeated effort
✅ reducing the sensation of muscle stiffness
✅ maintaining performance through efficient repair

This benefit is relevant both for athletes and for people who exercise occasionally, but feel that recovery takes too long or that musculature remains "loaded" after effort.

 

• Joint comfort and mobility: support for balanced inflammation

Joints are influenced by inflammation, oxidative stress and mechanical wear. Over time, the following may appear:
• stiffness in the morning or after prolonged sitting
• discomfort when climbing stairs, walking or exertion
• sensation of "stiffening" after cold or demanding periods

Bioactive compounds from cherries are associated with supporting a balanced inflammatory response, which can help maintain joint comfort. Cherry Concentrate can contribute to:
✅ better mobility and comfort during movement
✅ reducing joint discomfort associated with effort or age
✅ maintaining stable joint function long-term

For active people, this support means fewer breaks due to discomfort and better ability to maintain movement routine.

 

• Advanced antioxidant protection: anthocyanins and polyphenols for cellular health

Oxidative stress can affect cells and can accelerate biological aging. Free radicals appear naturally, but increase in conditions such as:
• intense effort
• pollution, smoking, UV exposure
• unbalanced diet and chronic stress
• insufficient sleep

Cherries are renowned for anthocyanins – the pigments that provide the dark red color and have an antioxidant role. Through concentrated intake, the product supports:
✅ neutralization of free radicals and cellular protection
✅ maintaining tissue integrity against oxidative degradation
✅ metabolic resilience and vitality during demanding periods

This antioxidant effect is not only reflected in "prevention", but also in how the body feels: more stable energy, better recovery, greater tolerance to effort.

 

• Support for uric acid metabolism and general comfort

One aspect for which cherry extracts are often appreciated is their connection with uric acid metabolism and associated comfort. When metabolic balance is disturbed, the body can become more sensitive, and joint discomfort can increase, especially in the context of purine-rich diet, dehydration or stress.

Cherry Concentrate can contribute to:
✅ supporting metabolic balance associated with uric acid
✅ maintaining joint comfort in contexts of increased sensitivity
✅ support for people pursuing an active and balanced lifestyle

This benefit makes the product relevant not only for sports, but also for people who want natural support for comfort and internal balance.

 

• Supporting sleep quality and nocturnal recovery (resilience in stress)

Sleep is the main period of body recovery. During periods of stress and effort, sleep can become fragmented, and recovery may be incomplete. Cherries are associated in nutrition with supporting a better recovery rhythm, as antioxidants and phytonutrients can reduce oxidative stress accumulated throughout the day, favoring a more balanced internal environment.

By supporting recovery and inflammatory balance, Cherry Concentrate can contribute to:
✅ better recovery overnight, especially after effort
✅ reducing the sensation of "loaded" body in the morning
✅ a more stable general sense of well-being

Even when the main goal is muscle recovery, sleep quality is a decisive factor, and antioxidant support can positively influence this dimension.

 

• Vitality and resilience for active people: support for sustainable performance

Real performance doesn't only mean intensity, but the ability to recover and repeat effort without feeling exhausted. Concentrated cherry extract can support:
✅ better resistance to repeated effort
✅ reducing the impact of post-workout "oxidative shock"
✅ maintaining functional energy during busy days

This support is useful for recreational athletes, people who have physical work, but also for those who combine workouts with a stressful life pace.

 

• 10:1 Concentrate: high density of active compounds in an efficient dose

A major advantage of the product is the 10:1 concentration, which indicates a more powerful extract than simple powder forms.

By providing 1,500 mg of concentrate, the formula offers:
✅ consistent intake of phytonutrients from cherries
✅ increased potency for antioxidant support and balanced inflammation
✅ practical efficiency for regular use

This characteristic differentiates it from supplements with small amounts of unconcentrated powder, where the density of bioactive compounds may be lower.

 

• Complete natural support: muscles, joints, recovery and cellular protection

Cherry Concentrate, 750 mg, NOW Foods offers complex support, based on a natural ingredient appreciated for its multiple effects. Through antioxidant action, supporting muscle recovery, joint comfort and inflammatory balance, the product can become a valuable ally for those who want to feel better after effort, maintain their mobility and protect their body in the face of daily demands. In a modern life rhythm, where stress and effort accumulate, a concentrated cherry extract can contribute to resilience, vitality and long-term comfort.
