Team sports

Obviously individual sports and team sports have big differences. The health benefits of Recovery Fruit apply just as much, though! Whether you’re playing volleyball, baseball, basketball, or even football, Recovery Fruit can help you step up your game and achieve your goals.

According to a study found in the College Student Journal, the average diet of collegiate athletes were “adequate in calcium, iron, and vitamin C. [Their] diets were inadequate in fiber, fruits and vegetables. The athletes had excessive intakes of sodium and percent fat” (Webber et al.). So what’s the big deal? Why are fruits so important to an athlete?

Tart cherries specifically were studied in the International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance. They concluded that tart cherries “can accelerate recovery after intermittent exercise and therefore extend the efficacy of [tart cherries] in accelerating recovery in team sports” (Quinlan and Hill).

When it comes to other Recovery Fruit ingredients, there has also been research on dragon fruit. There was a study done on soccer players and other athletes that found “red dragon fruit antioxidants should maintain the anaerobic threshold value to prevent fatigue due to lactic acid” (Harahap et al.).
