D-Mannose and Cranberry
The plant-based active ingredient D-mannose and the proanthocyanidins contained in cranberries can block the adherence of bacteria to the mucosal wall of the bladder in different ways. Consequently, these two ingredients ideally complement each other.
D-mannose – The effective plant-based active ingredient for urinary tract infections
D-mannose is a natural, bioactive monosaccharide and is purely plant-based
- Confirmed mechanism of Action in urinary tract infections*:
- D-mannose blocks bacteriain the entire urinary tract by inhibiting bacterial adhesion to the bladder wall (so-called "anti-adhesive effect")
- Effective against a variety of bacteria
- Is hardly metabolized & suitable for diabetics
- Very well tolerated & ideal for long-time use**
Health-promoting components of the cranberry
The fruit of the cranberry plant contains many health-promoting ingredients, for example secondary plant substances (i.e. phytochemicals) like proanthocyanidins that can contribute to the healthy maintenance of the urinary tract. Note that cranberry should not be confused with the related lingonberry or cowberryDissolve 1 Sachet in a glass of water (about 200ml) and take ideally in the evening just before going to bed. For the dietary management of recurring urinary tract infections, long-term use is recommended.

Proanthocyanidins (PAC) are secondary plant metabolites that have an anti-adhesive effect. This means that they inhibit bacterial adhesion to the urinary tract. The bacteria are unable to attach and are discharged with the urine. Cranberries contain a high amount of proanthocyanidins.
