  • Consuming cherry juice rich in anthocyanins for 12 weeks improved memory and cognitive functions, such as verbal fluency and both short-term and long-term memory, in older adults with mild to moderate dementia.
  • The cherry juice intake also led to a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure, with a trend towards lower diastolic blood pressure, but did not significantly change inflammatory markers like CRP and IL6.
  • Including anthocyanin-rich beverages like cherry juice could be a practical approach to enhance cognitive health and manage some health parameters in older adults with dementia.]
