Cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon) have been used for many centuries for their medicinal properties and have been widely studied for urinary tract health benefits.^†‡ Cranberries appear to work by inhibiting the adhesion of uropathongenic E. coli to the uroepithelium, impairing colonization. Cranberries contain several key compounds with antioxidant activity, including cPACs, which appear to be effective in helping support urinary tract health.

Primary Health Benefit

Cranberry fruit is a source of antioxidant compounds, known as proanthocyanidins, that have been found to help stop bacteria from adhering to the urinary tract wall. As a result, many forms of cranberry are taken by people to support a healthy urinary tract.Cranberry supplements offer a convenient and concentrated way to support urinary tract health, without the added sugar and calories that other forms may have.

Clinical Research Studies

• Clinical studies have shown health benefits from consuming cranberries in many forms when the level of the active ingredient is optimal.
• Proanthocyanidins are phytonutrients believed to be the active components in cranberries thus supporting a healthy urinary tract.
• Studies show consuming 10-16 ounces of cranberry cocktail, 1-10 ounces cranberry juice, or 500-1,600 mg of cranberry extract is beneficial for general urinary tract health.

Suggested Use

Take one capsule daily with water at mealtimes. We recommend drinking a full 8-ounce glass of water when taking cranberry capsule and drinking 6-8 glasses of water or other liquids each day.
