Cherries are one of the most beloved fruits, and for good reason. They're not only delicious but also pack vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds with powerful health effects.

But the fruit sugar content of cherries is on the high end. One cup of cherries contains 18 grams of sugar. Since these fruits are small, it's easy to go overboard and eat more than you intended. Use a measuring cup to measure your intended portion before you eat them so you don't overindulge.
