After nearly 4 years of research and development, Flavonoid Sciences of Traverse City, Michigan had created a proprietary new supplement called CherryFlex, a Softgel Capsule made from whole fruit. Each Softgel Contains 100 mg Anthocyanins, 20 mg Flavones and 30 mg Tannins. With Antioxidants, Melatonin, Anthocyanins and two important flavonoids -- Isoqueritrin and Queritrin, tart cherry products are being taken by thousands for relief from gout, fibromyalgia, arthritis and joint inflammation. Daily consumption of CherryFlex Softgels is the easiest way to enjoy all of the health benefits of Tart Cherries. Medical research has shown Tart Cherries to contain anti-inflammatory Cox-2 inhibitor compounds called Anthocyanins. Many people are reporting arthritis, gout and fibromyalgia relief from taking Tart Cherry products. Recent studies show that the antioxidant compounds in Tart Cherries may be 10 times stronger than Aspirin or Ibuprofen in relieving arthritic pain. In addition, Tart Cherries contain Melatonin which helps with the bodies sleep rhythms and Perillyl Alcohol, thought to shut down the growth of cancer cells by depriving them of the proteins they need to grow.
Nutraceuticals like CherryFlex are being recognized as safe alternatives to pharmaceuticals.
