Cherries: Health benefits of these stone fruits

Cherries are small, round fruits that are usually sold fresh in June and July. Hundreds of types of cherries are known, all with different flavors, but usually these are sweet or sour. The sizes also vary. Cherries also have a deep red, maroon or yellow-red color, depending on the variety. Sweet cherries are often eaten while sour cherries are more used for cooking dishes. All cherries have a cherry stone that must be removed before the cherries can be eaten or cooked.

Nothing beats a bowl of fresh cherries when they are in season. But frozen cherries, freeze-dried powders, 100% tart cherry juice and preservative-free cherries also have a lot of nutrients on board.
