Sour cherry juice is a nutrient-packed, cold-pressed beverage made from fresh cherries, preserving the fruit’s rich nutritional profile and natural tart flavor. This juice is naturally vegan, non-GMO, and free from added sugars and artificial sweeteners, making it a clean, healthy option for everyday hydration. Sour cherry juice contains antioxidants such as anthocyanins, which help fight oxidative stress, promote heart health, and speed up muscle recovery after exercise. Its naturally generated melatonin has also been linked to improved sleep cycles. This flexible juice can be consumed on its own or mixed with smoothies, salad dressings, or sauces, making it a tasty and nutritional addition to meals. It also contains vital nutrients, such as vitamins A and C, which promote immunity and overall health. Sour cherry juice, which is often packaged in glass bottles to preserve its fresh taste and nutritional value, is a simple method to increase your antioxidant and vitamin consumption.

Glycemic Load [GL]
A food's glycemic load reflects its potential to raise blood sugar levels after consumption. The impact of ingesting one gram of glucose is roughly equivalent to one glycemic load unit. The glycemic load is calculated by multiplying the total carbohydrate content of a food by its glycemic index and then dividing by 100. The range of low GL values is 0–10. A GL between 11 and 19 is considered medium, while a GL over 20 is considered high.

Glycemic Index [GI]
The glycemic index measures the increase in blood sugar levels brought on by consuming a particular carbohydrate within two hours of ingestion. It is displayed on a scale from 0 to 100, with 100 denoting the effect of pure glucose. High-glycemic-index foods [70+] quickly release glucose into the bloodstream, which raises blood sugar levels. Foods with a medium [56–69] and low GI [0-55] release glucose into the blood gradually.
