Short answer: Tart cherry and celery seed are two of the most popular natural options for uric acid support. Tart cherry has been studied in people, mostly as fruit or juice, and comes with natural sugar. Celery seed has been studied mostly in labs and animals, has no sugar, and is the first herb in Lifetones. Lifetones is made without tart cherry and without sugar.

|---|---|---|
| Common forms | Juice, concentrate, dried fruit, capsules | Extract in capsules or tinctures, seed |
| Research | Population and small human studies on cherries and uric acid | Mostly lab and animal studies, small human studies |
| How it is thought to work | Natural plant compounds called anthocyanins | Flavonoids that may slow xanthine oxidase, the enzyme that makes uric acid |
| Sugar | Juices and concentrates contain natural sugar, and some add more | None |
| In Lifetones? | No | Yes, alongside 6 other herbs |
Cherries are a healthy fruit, and population research has linked eating cherries with better outcomes for people with high uric acid. The catch is the format. Many people drink tart cherry juice or concentrate every day, and those products contain natural sugar, plus added sugar in some brands. Check the label if you are watching your sugar.
Celery seed has a long history of traditional use. In lab and animal studies, it slowed the enzyme the body uses to make uric acid. Studies in people are still small. Celery seed and uric acid
Lifetones was built as a sugar-free, 7-herb blend instead of a single-ingredient product. Celery seed is joined by nettle and birch, traditionally used to support the body's natural elimination of uric acid, and by white willow, devil's claw and boswellia, studied for joint comfort. See all 7 herbs
