Antioxidant capacity of foods is measured in ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) units. The higher the score the better a food may be in its ability to fight oxidants. 

A person needs 3,000 - 5,000 ORAC units a day. Just 3.5 ounces, 100 grams of concentrated cherry juice provide 12,800 ORAC units or just one serving of 1 ounce, 2 tbs will supply 3,757 ORAC, which is more than daily recommended amount.
