UTI (Urinary Tract) Supplements

Urinary Tract Infections more commonly affect women than men, which is believed to be due to women having a shorter urethra. These infections typically involve bacterial infection of the bladder and urethra, though more serious infections can extend to the kidneys. Typical signs and symptoms involve a burning sensation when urinating, pelvic pain in women, rectal pain in men, cloudy unrine and/or malodouress urine.

No infection ever eventuates without exposure to an infectious agent at some point. And though it is physically impossible to prevent pathogen exposure, there are some natural products that can assist with the management of this condition. One of the most popular and first-thought-of supplemets is the humble cranberry. Many take it in the form of juice, however, there are high potency supplements of this medicinal food in tablet and capsule form. It is believed that compounds within this medicinal food prevent the adhesion of bacteria to mucosal surfaces, making it difficult for the infection to take hold. Quercetin is a "natural antibiotic", given that it directly has a deterimental effect on bacteria, making it more difficult for them to grow. Additionally, this bioflavonoid is also a great natural anti-inflammatory. Vitamin C is also a nutrient that may be helpful in these conditions. Research shows that as little as 100mg daily can be effective for the prevention of this infection.
