A cherry-oatmeal smoothie
Enjoy both the sweet and tart varieties this summer! Drinking tart cherry juice before bedtime can help you sleep better and reduce post-workout pain. But the fact that cherries help you slim down is definitely the cherry on top of the cake.
Tart cherry anthocyanins activate a molecule that increases fat burning and decreases fat storage. Besides, sweet cherries are high in potassium, a natural blood pressure reducer. Furthermore, sweet cherries are high in beta-carotene, vitamin C, anthocyanins, and quercetin.
