Cherries are one of the highlights of the summer crop and we are so pleased to share this season's cherries with you. These are grown on Azure's own farms, and handpicked for freshness and taste. We love that our cherries are a BIG DEAL with the Azure family, and we can't wait to share this year's crop with you.
Be sure to pick up some for snacks, some for preserving and more to share. These delicious morsels won't last long!
Be sure to order organic cherries in your next Azure order so you'll be sure to catch them before they're gone.
Healthy Cherries for a Healthy Life
Red cherries provide several different key nutrients that are vital for your health and well-being. Cherries are known for having high levels of antioxidants that have anti-inflammatory benefits.
Many folks use cherries as a natural way to support joint function, weight management, and colon health too.
Antioxidants: Cherries have a high ORAC value and are packed with antioxidants like anthocyanin. These antioxidants may provide anti-inflammatory support and according to recent studies, cherries may offer significant joint support too.
Fiber: The dietary fiber found in cherries may help keep colons healthy. A study conducted at Michigan State University tested tart cherries in mice and human colon cancer cells. Mice that had a diet of cherries or anthocyanins produced significantly fewer tumors compared to mice who were fed control diets.
