Bladder Lining
UTI-like symptoms could be caused by inflammation of the bladder lining.
Ask your doctor if you could include the following supplements to help restore healthy bladder lining: Aloe Vera, Marshmallow root, Hyaluronic acid, and supplements that contain Quercetin and Chondroitin.
Green leafy vegetables and berries could help alkalize the urine & supply polyphenols while prebiotics help with supporting healthy gut microbiome.
Eat fresh berries and plenty of leafy greens. Nothing can substitute a wholesome diet. Supplements could help boost a diet during winter months or when traveling.
Certain supplements can help create unfavorable conditions to prevent UTI-causing microorganisms from overgrowing or sticking to the bladder lining.
While many herbal supplements claim anti-adhesive effects on E.coli bacteria, D-mannose and PAC-based cranberry supplements have the least side effects and the most clinical validation.
Also, check out biofilm-busting enzymes and garlic for their additional benefit.
Promote Healthy Flora
A healthy microbiome is your defense against opportunistic microorganisms.
While a healthy vaginal microbiome originates in your gut, a few well-studied probiotic strains target vaginal flora. Ensure also to include plenty of fermented foods (such as plain yogurt, kombucha, and sauerkraut).
