The cranberry is rich in proanthocyanidins (PACs), which help reduce the adhesion of bacteria to the urinary tract wall by making the pH of the urine more acidic. In this way, the likelihood of microbial adhesion is reduced, and consequently, the concentration of bacterial load in the area. This prevents the occurrence of urinary tract infections and cystitis.
Mannose (D-mannose) is a simple sugar that is produced in small amounts by the human body, is not metabolized, and is excreted unchanged through the urine.
It has a protective effect on the urinary system against infections and chronic inflammations (urinary tract infection, cystitis) caused by coliform bacteria, such as E. Coli.
It helps in their natural removal and prevents the formation of inflammation while also contributing to the reduction of unpleasant symptoms.
