Healtheries Cranberry 10,000 uses concentrated cranberries to relieve bladder and urinary tract discomfort. Research has shown this natural remedy is rich in vitamins and minerals and has antiseptic properties within our urinary system. The result is protection against cystitis and relief from the uncomfortable burning sensation commonly experienced.

Cranberries are rich in potassium, magnesium, vitamins A and C and possess antiseptic properties within our urinary system. Cranberries help provide protection against cystitis by helping to prevent the adherence of harmful bacteria to the bladder lining while helping to relieve pain and burning associated with cystitis.

E. Coli and bacteria that normally resides in the large intestine is responsible for about 85% of all urinary tract infections.

Tamms-Horsfall glycoprotein, a natural substance present in the urine of some individuals, has the ability to attach itself to the E. Coli bacteria and inhibit them from attaching to the bladder wall. Individuals with enough Tamms-Horsfall glycoprotein are unlikely to get a urinary tract infection from E. Coli. Those who lack or have low levels of this natural substance are more susceptible.

In 1994, researchers at Weber State University in Utah discovered that cranberry contains a substance similar in activity to the Tamms-Horsfall glycoprotein. In vitro tests where cranberry was added to a petri dish along with E. Coli bacteria and bladder cells, the addition of the cranberry substance kept the bacteria from attaching to bladder cells.

In 1994 a Harvard University study involving 153 elderly women with histories of repeated urinary tract infections showed that regular consumption of cranberry juice cocktail can decrease the incidence of urinary tract infections.

Ingredient Information:

The benefit of Cranberry Juice is:

• It is a potent inhibitor of bacterial E. Coli adherence to bladder lining.
• Studies reveal that Cranberry Juice inhibited adherence by 75% or more in over 60% of the 77 clinical isolates of E. Coli tested.
• 15 of 22 human subjects showed significant anti-adherence activity in the urine 1 to 3 hours after drinking 15oz cranberry juice.
• Cranberries are rich in benzoic acid, which is excreted as hippuric acid in the urine and acidifies urine.
