- Helps Defeat Urinary Tract Infections
Cranberry has long been linked to helping defeat urinary tract
infections, and recent research is beginning to bear this out.
How do cranberries help? When a cranberry is in its juvenile state, it is green
and bitter, making it unpalatable to most animals. This is a matter of survival.
At this early stage, the cranberry produces a certain class of molecules known
as flavonoids, substances that have been investigated for their nutritional
benefits and antibacterial activity. Studies have shown that the particular
flavonoids produced by the cranberry have a strong antibacterial effect.
As the berry matures, it must propagate. To ensure that this happens, the plant
transforms the flavonoid molecules to sugar molecules. ( so it will be more
palatable for animals to eat and spread it's seeds ). This sugar molecule makes
cranberry effective as a nutrient within the urinary tract. In the human body,
different cells have unique receptor sites. In cranberries, the sugar unlocks a
receptor site on the walls of the urinary tract.
This explains cranberries’ unique benefits. Cranberries contain a type of
flavonoid that is capable of defeating the bacteria that cause urinary tract
infections, and this flavonoid is attached to a sugar that seeks out the cells
that line the urinary tract.
Research recommends making cranberries part of your diet if you are prone to
recurrent urinary infections. A 1994 article in the Journal of the American
Medical Association indicates that cranberry might reduce the levels of bacteria
in urine.
