montmorency tart cherry extract

Montmorency tart cherry extract is a botanical extract derived from the fruit of the *Prunus cerasus* tree, specifically the Montmorency cultivar. It is a rich source of phytochemicals, including anthocyanins and natural melatonin, which contribute to its therapeutic profile. The extract is primarily used as a dietary supplement to improve sleep quality and duration by regulating circadian rhythms and increasing the bioavailability of tryptophan. It also exhibits potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it a popular choice for reducing muscle soreness and accelerating recovery following strenuous exercise. Clinical research, such as the Sip2Sleep study, has explored its efficacy in managing insomnia and anxiety, often in combination with other botanical extracts like Rafuma leaf extract.
