HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tart Cherry Maximum Strength 7600 mg by Futurebiotics

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • “Tart Cherry” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (7,600 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains one active ingredient: tart cherry extract at a total dose of 7600 mg per serving. Tart cherry is a concentrated form of the fruit, studied mainly for its anthocyanins and other compounds.

The capsules also include inactive ingredients — microcrystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, and modified cellulose — which are common binders and fillers.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: enhance recovery from strenuous activity.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, muscle recovery, post-exercise soreness, athletic endurance.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Sour Cherry is rated "Possibly Effective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Sour Cherry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Exercise-induced muscle soreness.

The data shows tart cherry extract is possibly effective for athletic performance. For exercise-induced muscle soreness, cognitive function, ADHD, fibromyalgia, and exercise-induced respiratory infections, the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate how well it works.

If you're considering this for one of those other uses, talk with your pharmacist about what the current research suggests.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sour Cherry

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Tart cherry is generally well tolerated when you eat the whole fruit, but concentrated supplements like this one are less studied, so caution is warranted. The most common side effects from concentrated tart cherry are abdominal pain, loose stools, and general gastrointestinal upset — a clinical trial found about 29% of children who took tart cherry juice concentrate reported belly pain.

One case of a possible allergic skin reaction has been reported. Because supplement-dose safety data is limited, start with the lowest dose and watch how you feel.

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Tart cherry extract is worth a try if you're an athlete or someone recovering from intense workouts — that's where the evidence is strongest. If you have a sensitive stomach, go slow and watch for cramping or loose stools.

Formula

Tart cherries are an antioxidant-rich superfruit that contain naturally-occurring anthocyanins - a potent class of flavonoids. Anthocyanins are powerful plant pigments responsible for the deep red and purple colors of select berries, fruits, and vegetables. While many dark-colored fruits and vegetables contain anthocyanins, tart cherries contain some of the highest levels, including some distinctive, beneficial anthocyanins specific to tart cherries. Tart cherries also provide high amounts of total phenolics and other phytonutrients. The favorable matrix of anthocyanins and phenols in tart cherries helps enhance recovery from strenuous activity and helps deliver powerful antioxidant benefits. Futurebiotics Tart Cherry Maximum Strength is a vegetarian supplement that provides the equivalent of 7600 mg of tart cherry fruit (Prunus cerasus) from 950 mg tart cherry extract 8:1 per daily serving. And, Futurebiotics Tart Cherry delivers the benefits of tart cherries without the calories or added sweeteners often found in cherry juice.

Tart Cherry Maximum Strength 7600 mg by Futurebiotics: Common Questions

Does Tart Cherry Maximum Strength 7600 mg by Futurebiotics interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Tart Cherry Maximum Strength 7600 mg. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Tart Cherry Maximum Strength 7600 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is tart cherry safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
The data rates tart cherry as likely safe in pregnancy and lactation. That said, concentrated supplements are less studied than the whole fruit, so talk with your doctor or midwife before taking it — they know your full health picture.
What are the most common side effects?
Abdominal pain, loose stools, and general stomach upset are the most common. A clinical trial found that about 29% of children taking tart cherry juice concentrate reported belly pain. Starting with a smaller dose can help you see how your body handles it.
Does this really help with muscle soreness after exercise?
Athletic performance is possibly effective based on the data we hold. For exercise-induced muscle soreness specifically, the evidence is insufficient to rate — meaning we don't have enough data to say whether it works for that use.
Can I take this if I have a cherry allergy?
One case of a possible allergic skin reaction to a tart cherry and apple juice blend has been reported, so there's a risk. If you have a known cherry allergy, skip this product and talk with your pharmacist about safer options.
What's in the capsule besides the tart cherry?
The capsule contains microcrystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, and modified cellulose — all common inactive ingredients used to hold the powder together and make the capsule.
