Cranberry Extract
60 Veggie Capsules
Cranberry is commonly recommended by herbalists and healthcare professionals to help support a healthy urinary system. Cranberry extract contains high levels of phytochemicals with properties that support and promote anti-bacterial growth. Clinical research has also shown the presence of antioxidants, particularly flavonoids, which may potentially support immune response.
In test tube studies, cranberries promote protection against E. coli, the most common bacterial cause of UTIs (urinary tract infections), from adhering to cells lining the wall of the bladder. The proanthocyanidins (a type of polyphenol) in the berry have shown this anti-adherence activity.
A small double-blind trial involving women aged 18 to 45 with a history of recurrent urinary tract infections found that taking 400 mg twice daily for three months significantly improved urinary tract health compared to a placebo.
