If you have already used cherry juice extracts or cherry recovery drinks, you have probably noticed that they often mention "contains approximately 300 ml of tart cherry juice" or "equivalent to 100 Montmorency cherries." However, this is less relevant than it seems. Cherry juice is consumed for the active ingredient anthocyanin, not for the amount of cherries.
Cherries are a natural product and therefore vary in size depending on the harvest. If you consider the amount of cherries used instead of the amount of active ingredient, the anthocyanin content will always vary. At Amacx, we focus exclusively on the active ingredient anthocyanin, not the amount of cherries. That’s why Amacx cherry juice is standardized to 100 mg of anthocyanin per 500 ml of cherry juice. This way, you know you are always getting the same amount of this anti-inflammatory active ingredient. In addition to this unique product development, we have also considered user convenience. By mixing with water and carbohydrates, you also get 30 grams of carbohydrates and 500 ml of fluid. Both are an optimal addition for recovery after intense exertion.
