“study has found that compounds found in sweet cherries inhibit cancer cell growth in vitro, including cells for breast, colon, liver, lung, pancreatic and skin cancers,” says Noratto Stevens. “Dark sweet cherries contain phenolic acids, flavonoids and anthocyanins, which have been shown to inhibit breast cancer cells from multiplying and invading surrounding tissue.

 2:Serves as antioxidants

Some experts believe the darker the color of a fruit, the greater the antioxidant level. Cherries fall into this category; they get their dark red color from the high levels of anthocyanins they contain.
