Hi! Has anyone taken cherry juice
concentrate for arthritis pain? I have
heard it works wonders. Where do you
purchase this cherry juice?

Aloha pookie,
i haven't tried the cherry juice
concentrate, but i've tried the cranberry.
I am no authority, but I think (for me)
it's going to take a combo of things--so
i'm trying a gluten free, soy free, dairy
free, egg free diet and i'm not sure how
much the juice has contributed to my
relief.
I get my unsweetened cranberry juice (and
i've seen the cherry their) at an organic
health food store. I had to call around
and search all over for an unsweetened
concentrate (costco doesn't carry it ).
I buy (the brand)knudsen's 32 fl oz
bottle. So my suggestion is locate an
organic health food store.
I don't know how unsweetened cherry juice
tastes (i choose no sugar so I don't tax
my liver anymore than I have to, leaving
it in the best shape to filter out
toxins), but cranberry straight up is less
than tasty, so I usually put it in my
smoothies--which includes blue berries,
strawberries, and bananas, but no citrus
since I seem to be one of those ra people
whose joints don't like citrus .
The following is a link to knudsen's
webpage:
http://
www.Knudsenjuices.Com/products/justprod.As
p?Id=17
click on where to buy and enter your zip
code for the closest store. If it doesn't
come up with a store near you, it doesn't
mean it's not stocked at a local
market--the site doesn't have all the
stores names at which its products are
sold.
Good luck! And let me know how it works
for you (i might try it to). I'll see
what I can find out about it and i'll post
any info I find. :d

Hi, I had heard that it was sour cherries
that helped the inflammation. Can be
found in most health food stores.
Also have tried the nsd and antibiotic to
control my as. Still looking for good
suggestions to fight this naturally.
Best,
klem

Cherry Juice Concentrate Posted: 05-04-08 02:44am
I do use cherry juice concentrate. The
brand i use in Nature best, and i will
include a few links too it. I have been
diagnosed with arthritis, and a rare
spinal disease that has very painful daily
symptoms. I have had two total knee
replacements in the same knee in 16 months
time. I have been too numerous
specialists, and have tried many pain meds
and vitamins and minerals..After my
massage therapists talked to me about the
benefits of cherry juice concentrate and
hearing it talked about on Oprah, i
decided i should give it a try. I SWEAR BY
THE STUFF, and its very tasty. It can also
be added to coca-cola, yogurts, smoothies,
etc. I know longer drink soda or any
other juice of any kind. The brand i buy,
cost about $20 per bottle, but a bottle
last for a month. That means its actually
.70 cents per serving, which is much
cheaper then any other drinks. 2T per day
is all you need, but you may like the
taste so well, you want more then that.
Its a very refreshing drink. I mix mine by
the quart too always have ready.
Not only is beneficial in relieving
arthritis and gout pain, it also lowers
the risk of heart disease and cancer. It
also has melatonin which helps with our
natural sleep cycles. I would suggest it
to anyone.

Hello,
I posted about this in another forum but
that's because it's practically the same
issue. I don't know how well Cherry juice
works but my mom's been on a joint
supplement called micosamine. it is made
from dehydrated cow milk. What it
basically does is promote joint
flexibility. Hope this helps .
