Free Tasting This week!!!

Eden Orchards Cherry Juice 100% 750ml
only $20 per bottle at Lagan's Pharmacy -

Sleep Aid

Sweet cherries that we grow here in New Zealand are a natural source of melatonin. This is what helps you get to sleep and stay to sleep—making for a good night’s rest.

Inflammation & Arthritis Relief

Studies as far back as 2012 have proven that cherry juice contains antioxidants—like anthocyanins—that are capable of reducing pain and inflammation that often accompanies osteoarthritis.

Immunity Boosting

Cherries contain potent antioxidants that fight off viruses and infections—as do all fruits and vegetables. These help to boost your immune system which fights off harmful diseases and viruses.

Fat & Metabolism Regulation

Those same anthocyanins—which are also responsible for our cherries’ red colouring—have also been found to lower the development of abdominal fat and even lower the risk of metabolic syndrome.

Workout Recovery

Our juice is also perfect for post-exercise recovery as cherries have high potassium content. This mineral helps maintain blood pressure and hydration, assists in muscle recovery, regulates pH balance, among many other great benefits.
