TIPS för er som har återkommande urinvägsinfektioner!
JO, det finns massa vetenskapliga bevis pa att tranbarsjuice ar bra mot UVI, men det beror inte pa sankt pH i urinen:
"Arguably, the strongest body of scientific evidence supporting the potential benefits of cranberry juice on urinary-tract health relates to the studies of plausible biological mechanisms. Cranberry juice acts to promote urinary-tract health by inhibiting bacterial adherence to mucosal surfaces.[21, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46 and 47] Bacterial adherence to mucosal surfaces is generally considered to be an important prerequisite for colonization and infection. [19] Avorn et al. [24] found no evidence that urinary acidification was responsible for the bacteriostatic effect of cranberry juice: the median pH of urine samples from the cranberry subjects (6.0) was actually higher from that of the placebo group (5.5). Results from mechanistic studies measuring inhibition of bacterial adherence conducted by several researchers have led to the following conclusions.
