HI- I have heard this juice helps for sleeping and finally tried it. I do think it helps a deeper sleep. I took about 1 oz. since it has so much sugar (none was added). I was concerned that the sugar would keep me awake. How much is recommended for better sleep and why does it work?

Dark tart red cherry juice

Tart cherry juice has an antioxidant called procyanidin B-2 that may be responsible for its anti-inflammatory and pro-sleep qualities. This juice may also increase tryptophan availability, and provide a source of melatonin, both of which can provide more restorative sleep benefits. The research I’ve seen on its use was 8 oz (that’s a lot!) 2x/day for benefit, but there are limited studies, so less may be as effective for some. To avoid too much sugar intake, you can also take a supplement that provides more concentrated benefit. Best!
