Cranberry juice for UTIs: natural remedy or old wives’ tale?
Consumption of a cranberry juice beverage lowered the number of clinical urinary tract infection episodes in women with a recent history of urinary tract infection
Nearly two out of every three women will experience at least one urinary tract infection (UTI) in their lifetime. Of these, about one-fourth will have a recurrent UTI within six months of the initial treatment, and one-third to one-half will have a recurrent UTI within one year. Over 11 million women seek antibiotic treatment for UTIs each year.
