Guest guest Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 I have a confirmed UTI. My Dr. of course wants me on an antibiotic ASAP...I want to wait and try other options. I read the article on UTI and garlic tea (which i can handle and I LOVE), nettle and parsley tea. I know Cranberry juice is not ok b/c of the sugar...but I didn't find anything on Cranberry herbal supplements. The bottle reads: 1 capsule: 465mg Cranberry, gelatin, silica- that's all. No added sugar, yeast, soy, etc. " Contains all active ingredients of cranberry juice without added sugars often used to mask the tart flavor " Made by Nature's Way Is this okay? Also, if anyone else has had a UTI...how long did you treat it and did you end up having to do antibiotics anyway? I want to try on my own first but not so long that I start having serious kidney problems. (This all started this morning.) Thanks Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, that cranberry is not a good remedy for UTI when you have candida because it contains too much natural sugars. The best treatment for UTI is fresh parsley tea. My sister is a nurse and she treated her own UTI by drinking it. Just to make sure she drank parsley tea for 7 days. Natural treatments are much more effective and do not do the damage that antibiotic drugs do. If you have had UTI in the past, during natural healing your body will retrace any and all episodes.
