The fact that vitamin C was used in the placebo group and that cranberry juice contains vitamin C is very important in this trial and could certainly explain why there was such a low incidence of UTI recurrence. Natural Standard, a complementary and alternative medicine information database, examines evidence for both cranberry juice and vitamin C for it’s use in UTI’s. Cranberry juice is a popular urinary tract infection home remedy for treating and preventing bladder infections.
Sure cranberry juice can help you avoid urinary tract infections and it might be a good idea to replace your morning OJ with cranberry juice. But it isn’t a cure all. The symptoms of UTIs – urinary frequency, urgency and pain – can also be caused by other problems such as kidney stones and even bladder cancer.
