Why cranberries?

Cranberries are now a popular healthcare choice, especially among women as they are loaded with acid compounds that may help to fight off bad bacteria. And like most berries, cranberries are an excellent source of Vitamin C too. Cranberries also contain a rich source of Copper and Manganese, as well as Antioxidants and phytonutrients, which have unique health benefits.

A.Vogel Cranberry Complex may be used to help prevent and treat Urinary Tract infections (UTIs), such as Cystitis - an infection of the bladder caused by bacteria from nearby skin travelling up the urinary tract and infecting the bladder. Over two million women in Great Britain alone suffer from the symptoms of cystitis every year and frequent sufferers are advised to keep a diary and record when cystitis occurs, as it may help to determine what triggers it. 

What triggers a cystitis infection?

There are various physical & environmental factors, which are thought to trigger a cystitis infection. Some of these may include the Menopause, dehydration, diabetes, smoking, vigorous sex, or if  you are wearing a catheter.

What are the symptoms of a cystitis infection?

Symptoms of a cystitis infection may include:

• Strong-coloured & strong-smelling urine
• Pain when passing urine – usually stinging or burning sensations.
• Feeling an urgent need to urinate, even when there’s little urine to pass.
• Pain in the lower abdomen or lower back (if bacteria has travelled upstream) ***if symptoms include lower back pain, a doctor must be consulted***

How can I minimise the risk of a cystitis infection?

• Not resisting the urge to urinate.
• Emptying your bladder after having sex.
