More about UTIs
Julie was asking about UTIs in another thread, so I thought I'd pass this on. My wife was having recurrent UTIs, and she had some very bad symptoms from them. At one point she wound up in the hospital for 3 days.
But the thing I wanted to pass on is this. I was on another forum several months ago, and people were talking about UTIs. There were a few people who recommended different things to try. One of them recommended "Theracran One", and I had seen this mentioned before. I thought I'd try it, so I ordered a 90 day supply so she could give it a good test. She has not had another UTI since she started using it, and I now have our second 90 day supply. To be sure, I'm not saying it will work for you, but it seems to be working very well for us. Cost is around $75.00 for a 3 month supply, but I've been spending more than that fighting the UTIs, and now there are no doctor visits, antibiotics, OR the symptoms that were really hard to deal with for both of us.

Thank you Ed, that is good information. Also, sometimes the older female has very dry tissue in that area and thus get repeated UTIs. This is treated with estrogen cream and also seems to be very helpful. What is in Theracran besides cranberries? I cannot figure out the Thera part.

My memory is that it's both the acidity of cranberries and a very specific antibiotic-like chemical that make it work, there have been some pretty good studies on this. Glad it's made a difference Ed.0

Hi Jo.

Like most things, it might pay to check prices at other places.

I take two capsules of Cranberex daily. I have been plagued by serious UTIs in the past year. I hope this helps!
