Organic Dried Cherries
General Description
PRANA’s organic dried cherries are pitted and naturally sweetened. The cherries that we carry are tart cherries.
Origin
The cherry has been consumed through a range of prehistoric times. The first record of it was when it was brought to Rome in 72 BC.
Nutritional Benefits
Cherries are very rich in anthocyanin, vitamin A, E, C and minerals such as cooper, iron and manganese. Tart cherries are on the list of fruits that contain the highest levels of antioxidants. It has been said that cherries help to maintain the health of our eyes and our skin. Cherries also possess anti-diuretic properties and their fibre content stimulates the body’s intestinal function. A diet enriched by tart cherries can reduce the risk of intestinal tumours. On top of all that, it seems that tart cherries help to reduce muscular soreness after intense exercise.
Uses
Cherries can be added to cereals, salads, couscous, stuffing but they are also absolutely perfect for a snack by themselves.
