Montmorency Cherry Concentrate Protects Muscle Function and Attenuates Inflammatory Response Following Simulated Invasion Sports Play

Montmorency cherries have been suggested as a potent exercise recovery supplement due to their reportedly high anti-inflammatory and antioxidative potential. A number of studies have demonstrated positive recovery effects of Montmorency Cherry Concentrate (MC) following mechanical (high-intensity eccentric muscle actions) and metabolic (prolonged high-energy turnover) biased exercise. Conceivably, MC might also be an efficacious intervention for accelerating recovery from a concurrent exercise challenge.
