An interesting article on tart cherries. The news re same has concentrated on the apparent anti-inflammatory properties. This article is interesting for two other reasons. It also highlights the potential anabolic effect of the fruit, while also reporting on the FDA's efforts to prevent the cherry growers from advertising the SUBSTANTIATED scientific claims for the benefits of the fruit. One hopes that the states of Michigan and Washington will support the growers in taking on the FDA and their state universities' Ag schools in continuing with the science. Michigan State seems to have gotten off to a running start. Go Spartans!
