D-mannose 500 mg - urinary tract health supplement 60 capsules

Product Description

Food supplement useful for proper urinary tract function.

Indications

D-Mannose 500 mg  is a supplement based on D-mannose, a simple sugar extracted from corn and bearberry useful for:

• Urinary tract function.
• Drainage of body fluids.

Thanks to its protective action on uroepithelial cells, D-mannose represents a natural and safe alternative for the control of urinary tract infections and infectious cystitis.
Uva bearberry, one of the most widely used medicinal plants to promote urinary tract function and drainage of body fluids, cooperates in this action thanks to the presence of arbutin, a compound with antiseptic activity.
According to the most recent data, D-mannose is a natural and safe alternative for the control of urinary tract infections and infectious cystitis. In recent years, urinary tract infections have a high incidence: they affect one in two women at least once in their lifetime.
D-mannose inhibits the adhesion of Escherichia coli, the main bacterium responsible for urinary tract infections, to uroepithelial cells.
D-mannose binds to the small "tentacles" present on pathogenic bacteria (in addition to Escherichia coli, also Klebsiella, Shigella, Pseudomonas and Salmonella), preventing them from attaching to the walls of the bladder.
This sugar has a greater adhesive capacity for bacteria than the bacteria themselves towards the bladder, and this is due to its ability to bind to the bladder. It allows the detachment of those already anchored to the mucosa and attracts those that have penetrated deeply.
Mannose also prevents bacterial invasion and the subsequent formation of biofilm, which makes the bacteria immune to antibodies and antibiotics.
D-mannose, moreover, binds not only to bacteria but also to the toxins they produce.
Mannose is also attributed with the ability to rebuild the protective layer of the bladder mucosa.
In fact, it acts in areas where the tissue has been consumed by inflammatory processes, toxins, and mechanical microtrauma (e.g., sexual intercourse), which make it more susceptible to infection. sensitive to attacks by microorganisms.
Another important benefit of D-mannose is that it does not create resistance, a factor that instead characterizes the use of antibiotics.
Furthermore, a factor not to be underestimated, D-mannose does not alter the intestinal flora and acts selectively at the bladder level.
