Home Remedies for Urinary Tract Infection - Do Cranberry Products Work?

Exclusive summary about Home Remedies for Urinary Tract Infection by Sherry Han

Cranberries and cranberry juice have a long-lasting reputation to cure and prevent urinary tract infections. This article will examine the fact and fiction about cranberry products.

First of all, if you are suffering from a urinary tract infection right now, do not use any cranberry products! Cranberry juice is widely rumored to cure UTI's, but this is not true. Cranberries are highly acidic, and the E. coli bacteria, which are the culprit in over 90% of all UTI's, thrive in acidic environments unlike most other bacteria.

Thus, by consuming more cranberry products while you have a UTI, you are actually allowing the bacteria to reproduce even faster! I've never had unsweetened cranberry juice, and I can only imagine how bitter it must taste.
