D-Mannose 700mg - 60 Capsules - Swanson

Reduction in urinary infections due to E.coli.

To begin with, you may be wondering what D-Mannose is.

D-Mannose is a simple sugar like glucose, safe for everyone (adults, diabetics, children and pregnant women), which is found naturally in some plants and which the body metabolizes in small quantities. When large quantities of D-mannose are consumed, almost all of it passes readily from the kidneys into the urine, being excreted by the body. D-Mannose is not an antibiotic, and does not kill either beneficial or pathogenic bacteria, but it may help eliminate Escherichia coli (E.coli) bacteria . These types of bacteria, when confined to the intestinal tract, are normally considered friendly, forming part of the "normal microflora" of the intestine.

Therefore, D-Mannose is highly recommended for people who suffer from frequent urinary tract infections. If you frequently experience a burning sensation while urinating or notice that you need to go to the bathroom frequently, these could be symptoms of an infection. Another sign is when you feel pain in your lower abdomen.

However, all of this can be avoided if you have a healthy urinary tract that is free of bacteria. So, D-mannose can help solve all of these problems and help you maintain a healthy bladder while also supporting the healthy flora in your urinary tract. It can also help prevent your body from developing infections such as UTIs or cystitis. D-mannose helps prevent harmful bacteria from growing in the bladder wall and causing infections.

Women will benefit greatly from this nutritional supplement.
