fruits
Tart cherries are exceptional anti-inflammatory fruits with concentrated anthocyanins and unique compounds that reduce joint pain, gout attacks, and muscle soreness.
Anthocyanins
-1.4
Higher concentration than sweet cherries, these compounds significantly reduce uric acid levels and inhibit COX enzymes similar to NSAIDs.
Quercetin
-0.8
Flavonoid that suppresses inflammatory pathways and reduces production of inflammatory prostaglandins.
Melatonin
-0.6
Natural sleep regulator that also functions as a powerful antioxidant, reducing systemic inflammation and oxidative stress.
This score is ingredient-based and weighted by DII-inspired evidence. Foods with added sugar, refined starches, and heavy processing trend higher; foods with fiber, omega-3, and polyphenols trend lower.
Tart cherries are high FODMAP due to polyols, with safe serving limited to approximately 7 cherries.
