Although it is considered a low glycemic food (55 on the glycemic index), it is another great source of energy boost for athletes looking for quick fuel. That is because most of its carbohydrates come from natural sugar, which is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream.
A cup of cherries (155 grams) contains 18% of your daily value of vitamin C, 10% of potassium, 5% of copper and 5% of manganese.
Cherries are also a good source of fibre, provide vitamin B, vitamin K and magnesium.
