The Benefits Of Lifeplan Cranberry Tablets: Urinary Tract Infections (Uti's) - Women Have Been Using Cranberry To Treat And Prevent Uti's For Nearly Ninety Years In The Belief That The Juice Acidified The Urine, Which In Turn Prevented Bacterial Growth.

The Active Principles Responsible For The Beneficial Effects Of Cranberry Have Yet To Be Identified Although It Does Contain Fructose Which Is Known To Inhibit The Adhesion Of Bacteria.
