Individuals who suffer from arthritis may be able to reduce inflammation in their joints and therefore pain by consuming more tart cherries. New research suggests that cherries have powerful anti-inflammatory effects. They may function as an effective complement to a prescription to buy Celebrex.

Individuals who suffer from arthritis may be able to reduce inflammation in their joints and therefore pain by consuming more tart cherries. New research suggests that cherries have powerful anti-inflammatory effects. They may function as an effective complement to a prescription to buy Celebrex.

In the study, researchers from Oregon Health and Science University asked 20 women between the ages of 40 and 70 who suffered from osteoarthritis to drink tart cherry juice for three weeks. The results showed that this led to a dramatic reduction in joint inflammation, which is the main cause pain in most arthritic conditions.

The findings led the researchers to claim that tart cherries may have the strongest anti-inflammatory properties of any food. This characteristic could make cherries an effective addition to standard arthritis treatments.

"With millions of Americans looking for ways to naturally manage pain, it's promising that tart cherries can help," said lead researcher Kerry Kuehl. "I'm intrigued by the potential for a real food to offer such a powerful anti-inflammatory benefit."

When individuals consume cherries along with a prescription to buy Celebrex it may significantly improve their ability to manage the pain associated with their condition.
