I'd never heard of using just cherry juice, I just eat dark cherries. I keep a can of them in the pantry just in case, but actually prefer fresh ones. That said, the advice came from my mother-in-law's friend who has fought gout for a long time. I laughed at her when she told me what he did, but it works for me. Obviously, it's not going to work for everyone, but I figured it was worth the dollar to find out.
