I know many people suggest drinking tart cherry juice for arthritis. Just curious if anyone here has tried it for fibromyalgia? I've seen it in stores--very expensive, but maybe it would be worth trying(?). Thanks.

I've been drinking the tart cherry juice for a few months. It seems to help me somewhat.

I was buying the bottles of sugar free cherry juice. I found it was less expensive to buy the concentrated cherry juice and mix it with water.

I have heard many good reports on tart cherry juice. But it is very expensive. If you give it a try, let us know how it goes.

This is supposed to help but you need quite a bit and it's expensive. I always eat a lot of cherries when in season and seem to do better then.

Thanks! I just discovered that Puritan's Pride has it: 16 ounces 2/$18.99, and it's a concentrate. Maybe I'll give it a try. I'll keep you posted!

My mother used it to help her gout.

I've also read it helps with sleeping issues. A study showed it helped people to stay asleep a little longer than average after drinking it I think???

I bought it last summer after a bout with unrefreshing sleep. I like it :)

Because its expensive, I'll water it down with a bit of water to make it last longer.
