Drinking melatonin-bursting tart cherry juice can naturally alleviate insomnia as well as many prescription drugs, according to a study published in the Journal of Medicinal Food.

In this study, scientists gave a group of elderly volunteers a glass of cherry juice or a placebo drink before bedtime. After 2-weeks, the group that drank the juice had significantly lower levels of insomnia severity compared to those that drank the placebo.

The scientists note that tart cherry juice’s high levels of melatonin – the neurotransmitter responsible for healthy sleep – may help people fall asleep easier.
