A diet that supports urinary health

Urinary tract infections are also the second most common type of bacterial infection in children.Urinary bladder infection is a frequent recurrent condition that affects young women in particular.Is there a diet that can help treat and prevent inflammatory bladder conditions?

1. What is a urinary tract infection?

In women, the first stage of infection is the colonization of bacteria around the entrance of the urethra, followed by the migration of microbes to the bladder. In men, however, it is always possible to spread infection to the kidneys and the prostate gland (the remainder). Approximately 40% of hospital infections and 1020% of infections occur (M. In particular, in the urine, the urinary bladder, the salivary glands, or the kidney is fertile.

2. A diet for bladder problems

Given the recurring problem of urinary tract infections, long-term and ongoing immunodeficiency management and protection of the bladder and kidneys with antibiotics should be considered as a final option. However, several studies have shown the effectiveness of many compounds in preventing the adhesion (attachment) of uropathogenic strains to bladder cells, inhibiting the growth of bacteria, stimulating the innate immune defenses of the stomach, and protecting the small intestine and kidney. Nevertheless, there is a need for more research to assess their efficacy in the blood treatment of ZUM (D. D. Ribiotica D. 2019).

3. Effect of cranberries on the treatment of urinary tract infections

Both the American plant species (Vaccinium macrocarpon) and the European species ( Vaccinium oxycoccus) have been shown to have a lower incidence of pneumonia in men who also take the capsules against cranberries (72 mg of proxy acids, anthocyanides, flavonoids) and are one of the few proxy-rich fruits that prevent the attachment of Escherichia coli to the urinary tract cells. Hamilton also observes strong benefits from the proxy of other male prostate cancer patients (although it has been noted that they also have a stronger effect on the use of antibiotics and antibiotics in women and children) as well as on the effects of antibiotic supplements (which have been studied in 2013 and 2016).
