Burning sensation : urinary infections

A two-in-one for digestive and urinary health

The key remains prevention to avoid infection in the first place. The cranberry contains proanthocyanidins that prevent pathogenic bacteria from residing on the walls of the bladder. Several studies have found that a good dose of this small fruit can significantly help decrease the incidence and recurrence of urinary tract infections^4,5,6. It is understood that probiotic bacteria colonize the urinary flora of good bacteria, combat unwanted strains and then prevent chronic infection⁷. The oral supplement Probaclac with cranberry not only nourishes the gastrointestinal flora with 9 human strains (mostly lactobacili) but also prevents urinary tract infection with its cranberry extract.

Gentlemen, it also concerns you!

Although women are more vulnerable to urinary tract infections because of their anatomy, they can also affect men⁸. Probiotics with cranberry extract can therefore help prevent this type of infection and contribute to the health of the prostate. In addition, some male patients may experience the side effects of certain anti-diabetes medication and would benefit from supplementation with probiotics and cranberries to alleviate urinary symptoms. Lastly, children who learn the rules of hygiene in the toilets would also benefit from taking probiotics to avoid uro-genital concerns. In fact, the problem of urinary infection has already affected at least 7% of girls and 2% of boys⁹.
