Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon), also known as American cranberry, was also used by American Indians in the common diet but also as a medicine for urinary tract problems, inhibits the adhesion of some bacteria (Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis , Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa etc.) to the cells of the mucous membrane lining the urinary tract, favoring their elimination with the urine. The action appears to be due to pro-anthocyanidins, polyphenols that selectively inhibit the adhesins produced by bacteria by reducing bacterial adhesion to uroepithelial cells. The most active pro-anthocyanidins in this sense appear to be type A (PAC).
D-Mannose is a monosaccharide, isomer of Glucose, which, once ingested, is absorbed in the upper part of the intestinal tube. It is not metabolized, not converted to glycogen, nor stored in the liver. It arrives unaltered in the urinary canal and attaches itself to the bladder walls and to the type 1 piles of the bacterium. It is eliminated unchanged in the urine.
La Gramigna (Agropyrum repens - Graminaceae). In ancient times it was called "wild wheat" (Agropyrum). The properties of the weed were known since ancient times. Dioscorides advised it in urination difficulties, Pliny in urinary stones and as a powerful diuretic. The creeping rhizomes contain a polyose derived from fructose, called tricitin, which is responsible for the diuretic action of the plant. Another compound, agropyrene, present in moderate quantities in the grass, can favor the functionality of the urinary tract.
Vitamin C or ascorbic acid . Vitamin C or L-ascorbic acid takes its name from the ability to treat scurvy, a disease that in the past affected sailors who were unable to take fresh vegetables for a long time.
It is necessary to take vitamin C with food because our body is unable to synthesize it. In our body, there is only a small reserve of it within the adrenal glands.
The positive functions of this vitamin are many:
facilitates the absorption of iron (adjuvant in the incorporation of iron in ferritin); stimulates the immune system; reduces the harm caused by the consumption of products containing food preservatives such as nitrates and nitrites; intervenes in the production of collagen; it intervenes in the synthesis of some important hormones and neurotransmitters; has a powerful antioxidant effect and counteracts the effects of toxic substances such as smoke and pollution; protects the skin from ultraviolet rays
