UTI’s are much more common in women than men unfortunately, but here are some easy natural ways to help prevent a urinary tract infection.

1) Sainthood Herbs Urinary Tract capsules: Take 1 capsule a day to maintain a healthy urinary tract. These capsules are loaded with Hibiscus Flower Extract and other nutrients to help keep you out of the lady’s room and free from UTI pain. ($28.95 for 30 capsules – sainthoodherbs.com)

2) Blueberries and Cranberries: We’ve all heard that cranberries have special bacteria-fighting properties but did you know that blueberries have these same properties? Try to avoid those sugary cranberry or blueberry juice cocktail drinks found in the juice aisles at grocery stores and try sticking to fresh blueberries instead. Eat them by the handful, mix them into your yogurt or sprinkle them on your morning cereal for an easy (and tasty) preventative solution.

3) Water, water and more water: Oh, and did I mention water? This might be obvious, but try to drink plenty of water throughout the day to flush your bladder and help rid your body of harmful bacteria. I suggest you drink at least half of your body weight in ounces of water each day. An added benefit is that water helps rid your body of fat.

4) ‘When you gotta go, you gotta go’: As soon as you feel the urge to use the restroom, go! This is nothing to wait on, ladies. Holding your urine can cause a backup of bacteria and can sometimes bring on a UTI.

5) Fruits high in Vitamin C: Studies have shown that a solid dose of vitamin C daily can help prevent UTIs. When thinking of fruits that contain vitamin c, most of us think of oranges right away. But did you know that Strawberries, Kiwi, Guava, Papayas, and even hot chili and bell peppers are high in vitamin C? Time to whip up a fruit salad (minus the peppers). And don’t forget to throw some blueberries in there!

These all natural remedies are good in use! Well still am not sure if the Urinary Incontinence is in more uncured condition then rather than trying natural remedies one should consult best urologist for this Urinary Incontinence Treatment. We have CU Center for Women’s health here in Beverly Hills which specializes in female urinary incontinence treatments with latest technology. Natural ways are good but first consult urologist only to confirm your urinary incontinence. Thanks
