(Newswire.net — October 11, 2021) Orlando, FL — Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are undeniably common today. It even causes the health care system a burden of more than $2 billion in treatment costs annually.
A study was carried out and published in the Journal of Medicinal Food.
This research was carried out by Paola Pinzón-Arango, Yatao Liu, and Terri Camesano, from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, in Massachusetts.
In this research, it has been found that cranberry products aid in preventing urinary tract infections. Over the years, researchers have been carrying out studies to look into the remedies beneficial against the infection.
This is an effort to reduce the need for antibiotics, which produce serious side effects. Consumption of cranberry juice has long been known to be particularly beneficial in fighting infection.
In the study mentioned above, it has been found that cranberries contain chemicals that prevent UTI-causing bacteria from latching onto the cells lining the urinary tract.
It is important to note that the infection develops when E.coli successfully adheres to the cells lining the urinary tract. Experts say that chemicals like proanthocyanidins (PACs) found in cranberry prevent E. coli.
It is worth being warned E.coli is responsible for about 85 percent of UTIs and 90 percent of cases of acute pyelonephritis.
“Cranberries, one of only three species of fruits native to North America, has a long history of medicinal food use. Native Americans used the fruit for the treatment of bladder and kidney ailments hundreds of years ago. The article by Camesano and co-workers is a milestone in the understanding of its mechanism of action,” says Sheldon S. Hendler, Ph.D., MD.

Aside from proanthocyanidins (PACs), cranberry has also long been popularized by the therapeutic sugar it contains called D-mannose. This ingredient has been found to work by binding with E.coli before the bacteria cause an infection.
Studies carried out in the past years have actually shown that the use of formulas like Divine Bounty D-mannose works wonders in battling the infection. It is even widely used by individuals who are trying to avoid the use of antibiotics.
Divine Bounty D-mannose contains cranberry and dandelion extracts. It is made carefully in an FDA-inspected facility in the U.S. and continues to be a popular choice in the global market.
It could be an excellent choice for individuals who are trying to increase their protection against infection.
