Amacx Cherry Juice | 12 Pack

If you have often used cherry juice extracts or cherry cordial, you will have noticed that there is often talk of ‘containing +- 300ml sour cherry juice’ or ‘corresponds to 100 Montmorency cherries’. However, this is less relevant than it seems. You drink cherry juice for the anthocyanin content, not for the quantity of cherries. Cherries are a natural product and therefore differ in size from harvest to harvest. If you base your calculations on the quantity of cherries used instead of the quantity of anthocyanin, you will always get a different anthocyanin content.

At Amacx, we therefore only look at the anthocyanin content and not the quantity of cherries. With this in mind, Amacx Cherry Juice is standardised at 100 mg anthocyanin per 500 ml cherry juice. This means you always know you are getting the same amount of this anti-inflammatory substance.

In addition to this unique product development, we have also considered the user's convenience by mixing the product with water and carbohydrates, so you also get 30 grams of carbohydrates and 500 ml of fluid. Both are an optimal addition for recovery after strenuous exercise.

If the focus is on optimal performance and recovery, for example during a competition lasting several days or a period with multiple competitions in a short period of time, the use of cherry juice is recommended. But beware: during training periods, when the focus is on ‘getting better’, it is better not to drink cherry juice. The inflammatory reactions and muscle damage that occur after a workout are an important stimulus for the body to adapt and get better. Cherry Juice is ideal when recovery is the focus, for example, during a multi-day competition.

Muscle damage occurs during strenuous exercise, which is often accompanied by muscle pain and reduced muscle function in the days that follow. Numerous small inflammations and associated oxidative stress are the cause of this and are part of the recovery process. After the discovery of the anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects of tart cherries, the idea quickly arose that these cherries could play a role in the recovery from strenuous exercise and improve performance in a short subsequent competition. Cherry Juice is a handy ready-to-use recovery product.

Various studies have shown that a concentrate of specific sour cherries, with high concentrations of polyphenols/anthocyanins, helps to reduce muscle damage/pain after strenuous exercise and that performance improves the following day. This has been demonstrated in sports involving short, explosive bursts of energy (such as various team sports), but also in endurance sports such as cycling or running a marathon. Cherry juice also contains a significant amount of carbohydrates, which helps replenish glycogen stores after strenuous exercise. In addition to high concentrations of polyphenols/anthocyanins and carbohydrates, sour cherries also contain relatively high concentrations of melatonin. This substance has a positive effect on sleep quality, which can further promote recovery.
