Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 Hey-ya, Gig-Gal, Has anybody ever suggested cranberry pills? Cranberry juice is great for curbing, even curing some, UTIs, but the juice is full of carbs. But health stores sell the essential ingredients for UTI care in pill form.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 Actually, I had a chiropractor recommend cranberry pills for UTI's. It works beautifully.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 I have always been prone to UTI's and would do cranberry juice but because of the sugar content no longer do it... Well I started cranberry pills and NOT had a problem since! (knock on wood) Happy Holidays!

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 I love the Ocean Spray Light Cranberry Juice; it's got way fewer calories than regular juice because it's sweetened with Splenda instead of corn syrup/sugar... I believe 8 oz is 40 calories instead of 130 or so. Still not a freebie, but if you miss cranberry juice, it's worth checking out. I just wish they would expand the line with Light Cranberry-Tangerine and Light Cranberry-Strawberry... Those are the two I miss the most! I am sick of Cran-Raspberry and never really liked Cran-Grape. Happy New Year!

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 I forget who makes it, but I love cranapple juice. I am also partial to crangrape. My big thing though is that I like cranberry so much that I would drink the WHOLE thing. Lori Owen - Denton, Texas CHF 4/14/01 479 lbs. SRVG 7/16/01 401 lbs. Current Weight 302 lbs.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2002 Report Share Posted December 31, 2002 Hey Steve-a-reno!!! I dimly remember someone mentioning it, but like most things....if it doesn't pertain to me at THAT given minute...I usually file it in my circular file! That would the be BLACK hole that exists in my head. As soon as the New Year is upon us and the stores open I will be heading towards a health food store. Would rather do pills then the juice....even the diet stuff has way too much sugar.

So, I mix it with over half water. I go through phases until I get sick of something. I can no longer handle Crystal Lite, even diluted, it's just way to sweet for me. in NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2003 Report Share Posted January 1, 2003 < > That is exactly why I don't drink sodas or ANY bottled drinks. They are all way too sweet for me, regardless of the sweetener used. I'm a " coffee, black " and home made iced tea person. I can control the amount of sweetness (or none!) that way. As for fruit juices, I mix them 50/50 with club soda. Just a little fizz, and way less sweetener...

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2003 Report Share Posted January 1, 2003 Judy, are you my twin sister or what. This is really a nice refreshing drink. I just recently discovered rasberry tea which I like so much better then peach tea. I get raspberry tea as one of my treats. My family fell in love with it over Christmas.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2003 Report Share Posted January 1, 2003 Ok I have started a regime of water with fresh lemon and crushed ice. This is the ONLY way it tastes good to me and I have to get MORE water into me. Was at a restaurant the other night and the water tasted soooo good. Well, I think I have figured out it is because of the crushed ice and the lemon. Keep your fingers crossed. The cranberry juice has already become icky tasting. The Cipro is making me feel sick......WAAAAAAAAAA I hate starting a new year this way!!!!! Ok....sorry for whining! Will try to behave myself and stop feeling sorry for myself. Sheesh.
