I'm on another health group and one member reported today on his cancer dx from his "social smoking".. I made a post that if one won't kick their habit of the cancer stick, at least take good amounts of antioxidants to load their body on what it needs...COULD save their lives.

I know I skipped to cancer as cigs clog the arteries of our hearts....antioxidants COULD keep them unclogged...I'm banking on that.

I drink orange juice everyday for breakfast. It seems to pair very well with chocolate chip pancakes smothered in maple syrup and a healthy portion of bacon on the side.
Orange juice (vitamin C) does have its benefits.

I'll stick with my Vit C....easy breezy....Navel oranges and tangerines soon in their season. Oh and dentists love love their sugar indulging patients. I was there for too many yrs.

I drink orange juice everyday for breakfast. Me too. Trop50 has less sugar in it than a navel orange and tastes great!

The trouble is that it doesn't go on sale often enough here. I buy the United Dairy brand of O.J. and it is one of the best that I have found for not only taste, but for value too.

Navel oranges and tangerines I love oranges in all their forms and varieties. They are in season now and prices aren't too bad considering that the market price is up this year and the crop is slightly smaller according to early estimates.

I'm thinking of buying some cherry juice or perhaps dried cherries, supposed to help with post-workout muscle pain. Increased oxidative stress contributes to development and progression of several human chronic inflammatory diseases. Cherries are a rich source of polyphenols and vitamin C which have anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Our aim is to summarize results from human studies regarding health benefits of both sweet and tart cherries, including products made from them (juice, powder, concentrate, capsules); all referred to as cherries here. We found 29 (tart 20, sweet 7, unspecified 2) published human studies which examined health benefits of consuming cherries. Most of these studies were less than 2 weeks of duration (range 5 h to 3 months) and served the equivalent of 45 to 270 cherries/day (anthocyanins 55–720 mg/day) in single or split doses. Two-thirds of these studies were randomized and placebo controlled. Consumption of cherries decreased markers for oxidative stress in 8/10 studies; inflammation in 11/16; exercise-induced muscle soreness and loss of strength in 8/9; blood pressure in 5/7; arthritis in 5/5, and improved sleep in 4/4. Cherries also decreased hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), Very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein (TG/HDL) in diabetic women, and VLDL and TG/HDL in obese participants. These results suggest that consumption of sweet or tart cherries can promote health by preventing or decreasing oxidative stress and inflammation.
Anybody use cherry as a supplement?

I've dabbled in "pure" cherry juice off and on for years. One has to go with the tart pure stuff otherwise you get a lot of sugar. I never got any relief I had hoped for and got tired of buying cherry juice for $6+ a quart.
What I find delightful is low sodium V8 juice which I do dilute some and a nice 8 oz glass gives one about 800mg potassium, which is a good lift.

No I don't use many supplements. But some of the pain from workouts can be relieved with stretching, ice, and a small amount of heat? The pain is from micro tears in the muscle fibers and as it repairs, you actually get stronger. OK, nothing to back that up except experience. I've changed my lifestyle to include workouts and have seen huge benefits in the past year.
