Cystex Urinary Health Maintenance is formulated with multiple powerhouse urinary health ingredients!
- Cranberry: Anti-adherent, Antioxidant.* Research shows that components found in cranberry may help prevent bacteria, such as E. coli, from clinging to the cells along the walls of the urinary tract and causing infection. Findings from a few laboratory studies suggest that cranberry may have antioxidant properties.
https://nccih.nih.gov/health/cranberry - Vitamin C: Antalkaline, Antioxidant.* Vitamin C is thought to have an effect in UTIs by acidifying the urine. Making the urine acidic can help keep bacteria down. Vitamin C also acts as an antioxidant, helping to protect cells from the damage caused by free radicals.

Some scientists think that the bacteria stick to the natural sugar instead. This helps bacteria leave the body through your urine. Some studies suggest D-mannose may play a useful role as a prebiotic that may help by stimulating the growth of “good” bacteria.

Microbiotas are “friendly, beneficial” bacteria that produce essential nutrients; prevent overgrowth of infectious organisms; boost intestinal immunity; and prevent inflammation.
