What else is good for them?

Answers:

because the bacteria that causes the infection will not hold on to the urinary tract for some unknown reason.

was explained to me by a doctor.



A substance present in cranberry juice prevents bacteria from adhering to the walls of the bladder so that infections aren't as likely to occur.

The acidity of cranberry juice can help prevent urinary tract infections, but will not cure the infections. The only way to cure a UTI is to take antibiotics exactly as prescribed.
