Cherry Health Benefits
Cherries contain a lot of minerals and trace elements, as well as a high content of important vitamins. They are especially recommended by alternative practitioners for bronchitis and colds because they are absolute vitamin bombs. Surprisingly, because it happens rarely enough, the leaves, stems and the bark of cherries contain even more active substances than the actual fruit. For a healthy cherry tea, both the fruit and the leaves of fresh cherries are suitable.
The juicy red colour comes from the so-called anthocyanins. These are substances that give fruits such as apples their reddish colour. They also indicate that the fruit has been exposed to strong sunlight, because the substance protects against UV rays and acts against free radicals. The substance also has a mild diuretic effect. Cherries promote digestion, but have a laxative effect if eaten in excess.
But there is definitely nothing wrong with a few cups of delicious cherry tea. Cheers.
