Cherry Capsules Side Effects

The potential side effects of cherry capsules:

• Minor possible side effects include nervousness, constipation or diarrhea, trouble sleeping, weight loss, loss of appetite, or excessive hunger.

• More serious side effects that require consulting a doctor include intense stomach pain, dizziness, constant sleepiness, and memory loss.

• Older adults may be more sensitive to side effects like dizziness, drowsiness, mental/mood changes, constipation, and trouble urinating.

• Cherries have negatively impacted patients with chronic kidney diseases, causing acute kidney injury (kidney failure).

• Gastrointestinal problems like intestinal gas, cramps and bloating are common side effects of consuming immoderate amounts of cherries.

• Sensitive people may develop allergies due to cherry consumption.

• Cherries do not contain many essential vitamins and minerals and so cannot be used as a replacement for other nutrition-rich foods.

While cherries and cherry supplements are generally safe, potential side effects include digestive issues, allergic reactions, and kidney problems, especially with excessive consumption. Consulting a doctor is advised before taking cherry supplements.
