The red tart cherry is a natural source of melatonin and a lot of people are starting to drink the cherry juice for sleep benefits. I just wrote a great article about the cherry juice sleep benefits. It includes information on published research regard a two week study conducted on older adults and how drinking cherry juice helped the participants in the study to get an average of 17 minutes more of sleep.

New research has been published from the School of Life Sciences at Northumbria University in the United Kingdom. The research was conducted on Montmorency tart cherry juice and indicates that tart cherry juice may help to significantly increase the levels of melatonin in the body naturally. The findings of the research could benefit a number of individuals including those with jet lag, workers on swing shift and more.
