Urinary tract infections (UTIs) affect both women and men, but women are 50% more likely to experience them. With at least 50% of women encountering a UTI in their lifetime and 15–25% of adults and children suffering from recurrent or chronic infections, maintaining urinary tract health is a crucial first line of defense. UTIs are often caused by bacterial or yeast overgrowth, and in many cases, standard antibiotics prove ineffective. D-mannose has shown promise in helping reduce UTI symptoms, even during active infections. According to Healthline (July 29, 2024), a 2022 review of studies found D-mannose, alone or combined with other protocols, to be more effective than other remedies.†

Benefits
- Clinically studied ingredient supports Urinary Tract Health.†
- D-mannose, a naturally occurring simple sugar, help s cleanse the urinary tract and maintain a healthy bladder lining. It is metabolized easily and excess amounts are rapidly excreted, so it won’t harm healthy blood sugar control. Clinical studies have demonstrated that, when taken regularly, D-mannose promotes normal urinary tract function by cleansing and maintaining a healthy bladder lining.†
- D-mannose is a sugar that can be found in many fruits and naturally occurs in the human body. It supports a healthy urinary tract by inhibiting bacteria from latching onto the walls of the urinary tract. It is thought that the bacteria are then expelled when urinating, thus preventing the growth of bacteria which leads to an infection inside the bladder or urinary tract.†
- D-mannose also has anti-inflammatory properties. For example, d-mannose can inhibit the neutrophil oxidative burst by suppressing neutrophil oxidative metabolism and attenuate the inflammatory reaction in wound healing. No similar effects were found for other hexose sugars such as glucose, galactose, or fructose.†
