Last week I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Amy Howell. She is from Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA.She has been studying Cranberries since 1993. That's 21 years so you could imagine she just about knows all there is to know about cranberry.
Her research has been published extensively in many journals. Three points that I found extremely interesting are;
- Products labeled as cranberry can be a different berry that looks like cranberry but does not have the same urinary tract effect
- Some products contain the skin of the cranberry where the active constituent cannot be accessed.
- Dose is very important. To get enough of the active ingredient you need a standardised dose of 36mg PACS.
This extract of cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) has been shown to help prevent potentially harmful bacteria (E.coli) from sticking to urinary tract walls and effectively flush out the bacteria from the urinary tract to help promote urinary tract health. By helping to maintain a clean urinary tract, Ellura may help to reduce the frequency of recurrent cystitis (infection of the bladder) in women.
