Күн бұрынHello! I have been getting requests (which is so exciting in and of itself!) for a UTI update video addressing my current regimen and answering frequently asked questions. I do my best to answer some of my FAQs in this video, but I also made a blog post answering not only the questions proposed here, but also a few others I’d say count as FAQs!

FAQs Answered In This Video:
✩ Intro: 0:00
✩ Are you still UTI free? 1:53
✩ What is your current routine/regimen? 4:23
✩ Can I take D-mannose on an empty stomach? 5:16
✩ Is it the D-mannose or the probiotics that worked for you? 6:31
✩ What does the powder taste like? 7:50
✩ What brand do you recommend? 8:00
✩ Are the pills just as effective as the powder? 8:59
✩ Why did you get chronic UTIs? 9:16
✩ How did you cure an acute UTI with D-mannose? 12:45
✩ Did you wake up at night to take the D-mannose? 13:05
✩ Did you change what you were eating or drinking while trying to cure your acute UTI with D-mannose?
I didn’t change what I was drinking or eating. I still drank coffee and tea, and ate citrusy foods. However, other than UTIs, I don’t think my bladder is very sensitive. Some fluids and foods can be irritating to some people’s bladders (coffee, tea, (even decaf), alcohol, and carbonated beverages are universal irritants), so if you have a sensitive bladder, you can try steering clear of said fluids/foods while you are trying to cure an acute UTI-this just doesn’t seem to apply to my bladder. I also didn’t change how much I was drinking; however, I do try to drink 1.5 - 2 liters of water per day regardless of an infection. I’m also at altitude here in CO!
✩ I tried to cure an acute UTI with the d-mannose, and it made my symptoms better but they are still there. How long should I take the d-mannose before getting antibiotics? 13:51
→ Study mentioned: www.ncbi.nlm.n...
→ “…women with recurrent cystitis can accurately self-diagnose and self-treat UTI as accurately as any physician.”
✩ What else do you to prevent UTIs besides using D-mannose? 15:02
✩ Is D-mannose safe for diabetics? 15:51
✩ I heard prolonged use of d-mannose causes kidney infections, damage, and even failure. Are you worried about your kidneys? 16:13
✩ D-mannose isn’t working for me, why? 16:58
Other FAQs Not Addressed In The Video:
✩ Where do you buy the powder?
I buy my KAL powder from Amazon, but if you google “KAL D-mannose Powder,” it looks like many online and physical stores sell it!
✩ Is your friend with the spinal cord injury still using d-mannose and how much does she take?
Yes, my friend with the SCI still uses d-mannose. Last I checked, she uses the pills, and takes one serving in the morning and one before bed.
✩ Is it okay to take the d-mannose and antibiotics?
I have in the past without an issue, but you should ask your prescribing physician.
✩ Will d-mannose interact with my birth control?
While I am no longer on hormonal birth control, I took d-mannose while taking the pill and had no issues or change in efficacy. That being said, check with the physician who prescribes your birth control!
✩ Is this regimen safe if I am pregnant?
I have not used d-mannose while pregnant, so I cannot speak to this personally. Ask your physician!
✩ Do you notice you have food sensitivities related to your UTIs?
No! Some foods can irritate some people’s bladders, but this has not been an issue for me to my knowledge.
✩ How much water do you drink?
1.5 - 2 liters per day.

There are two treatments to UTI aside from taking d-mannose,UVA-ursi, marshmallow rootfrequently(which it didn't cure my condition, it just maintains it) 1) high dose introvenous vitamin C(IVC 75grams at a 1gm/min infusion rate), I did that frequently more than recommended frequency, I did 3 days in a row with single day rests(3days, 1day rest, 3day, 1 day rest,...) 2) vaccines, I haven't tried this one yet, called FimCH, ExPEC4V 3)antibiotics are not a cure

Pelvic Empowerment hi Tory, just wanted to let you know I finally beat the dread chronic UTI I had for the last two years. Turns out I was resistant to macrobid, then tried cipro and did not do the trick either. So I started doing ginger and turmeric shots twice a day, plus the d-mannose, probiotics and enzymes to help me digest food as well. Aldo a clean diet as much as I could. It took a while but I did this religiously everyday up until a few days go. Still doing d-mannose once a day, probiotics and enzymes. Will give ginger shots a break for about to weeks and then start again.

BTW I am a male and have no idea how I got my infection, never had a UTI in my life, then one day I am in sepsis, still battling the infection, antibiotics work fine, but as soon as I am off, it comes back done 3 cycles of Antibiotics, so not taking them again, using all the natural treatments I can, I seem to have it under control, but still have it. D-mannose latest research says it does not have any benefit, that was in a double blind trial, I am still going to take it, i still think it has potential specially if you combine it with a extremely low carb diet.

I’ve been dealing with chronic UTI’s for almost three years now. I can’t even count how many doctors visits, specialists ive seen and antibiotics I’ve been put on. Each time a UTI would occur, the feeling of depression and hopelessness would come over me. It caused me to miss work and lose my overall quality of life. After consistently taking D Mannose in pill form I was UTI free for about 7 months which was unheard of for me. Unfortunately I am experiencing a flare up right now and am so upset due to the success I was having. Seeing this video about the powder immediately had me purchase it online. This is the first video I’ve come across that I’ve truly identified with and mirrors what I’m going through. Thank you for bringing a little peace of mind to my day 😭

Your story hits so close to home! I, too, was UTI-free for a number of months while taking the d-mannose pills but managed to contract another UTI maybe 6 months in. Switching to the powder made the world of difference for me. I really hope that is the case for you, too 💛 I'm so glad this video was helpful!

Hi Tori, I know I've told you this before....but you saved my life with D-Mannose. Just wanted to thank you again. I was in a world of hurt until my DMannose arrived by Amazon. I don't say this lightly Tori. I am a cancer survivor, SLE disabled me 20 yrs ago and lifelong Crohn's, lifelong! So at 60 I've lived on steroids more than not. My bladder irregular shape doesn't drain completetly and I get a UTI everytime I catheterize....ugh I QUIT doing that and drink more water and take DMannose daily. I would rather die than self-catheterize so THANK YOU. I was going out of my mind iving on antibiotics and having it raise hell with my Crohn's..... You are an angel. Keep doing what you're doing please. God Bless You!

Be sure to use 100% cranberry with no sugar added. You can also add a Tbsp. Of apple cider vinegar with a mother because it is a powerful antimicrobial to fight fungus and bacterial infections. Refrain from bathing and shower instead. Avoid baths because it can be an irritant due to the soap in the bath water. Just wash the area with plain water.

Some people can be insanely ignorant. UTI’s are not necessarily linked to hygiene. Chronic UTI’s are typically caused by a biofilm that tends to create a coating, making it hard to cure because the biofilm allows the bacteria causing the infection to hide, thus allowing for the infection to return. 😊

Great video! i remember asking you so many questions two years ago, for my wife, who was suffering from uti's. She used D-Mannose, like you had suggested and her infection's finally stopped. It took several months, if I remember correctly, for it to finally work, but it did. She has not had an infection for two years, or the last time I had written to you. She has a bottle of D-Mannose in the refrigerator, just in case, an infection occurs. You are a natural for this! Great delivery and it's easy on the ears. I see now that you are married. In the last video, two years ago, you were talking about waiting outside your boyfriends house, because he was sleeping. You did the video in your car, which was impromptu, but of good quality. I think you have a promising future doing this kind of education for men and women. I believe we will be seeing much of you in years to come! Good luck, and much Mahalo. Aloha, from Kaneohe, Hawaii.

I've been struggling with chronic UTI's for 20 years now and I think I've tried everything including D-mannose .The problem with the recurrent UTI is the biofilm that the bacteria is forming into the bladder and this is how the bacteria protects itself and becomes antibiotic resistant.I managed to put this under control for 4 years using oregano oil( which is natural antibiotic). In order to destroy the biofilm I would suggest using some natural biofilm destroyers such as garlic, turmeric, tea tree oil etc along with taking oregano oil and D mannose. Since I'm not a doctor please consult your urologists before taking any further actions.Good luck everyone!

I wish you the absolute best on your healing journey.

I follow their protocol which includes DMannose in water every 3 days and some capsules with other things. I did get another so I switched to using their powder every morning and it stopped. Got one more recently so going to use my MicroIngredients D Mannose in a glass of water at night as well, 3/4 tsp as you do. Also I drink something like 8 glasses of water a day. Water is important.

Hi, fellow Physio (in Training) here :) I have also suffered from chronic UTIs for the past 15 years. My hypothesis is that I used to get so many antibiotics when I was a kid and even also as an adult. I think my microbioma is not ideal. Also I think biofilm has got something to do with it. It often feels like it is something systemic, I also get UTIs easier when I drink white wine and/or beer, for example. The hypothesis about anatomy sounds plausible, but tbh 1 or 2 cm don't really make a big difference is what I think. I think it is more important what kinds of bacteria etc. are being transportet from the back to the front. Also, the lymphatic system kind of connects colon, vagina and urethra. For me personally, I still get UTIs even if I take a shower after sex, and tbh I have never not wiped from the front to the back. Still, I get UTIs. In my case I really believe it is a systemic thing and something with the microbioma is off.You also mentioned that you had to use probiotics and in your other video you said, that is a whole different story - I wonder why? I mean these things are so closely connected. I am going to do a colon cleanse again, as last time I didn't have UTIs for a few months after. Thank you for making these videos, it really helps to know that others also have the same problem.

I was hoping you could make a video about the possible causes of symptoms of a UTI without the actual infection!

I hate hearing that you've been navigating UTI-like symptoms for months without having an active infection. I really hope that you are able to find peace in your body and remain kind to yourself during this time. Thank you so much for the request -- I just added it to my list and would love to make that video! Until then, have you ruled in/out your pelvic floor? If you think of your pelvic floor like any other muscle, you can imagine that when there is a threat, it tightens up. Kind of like if you were going to be punched in the stomach -- your abdomen might tighten to protect you. The same is true of your pelvic floor when you have a bladder infection, the bladder lives right on top of the pelvic floor and it will sometimes tighten up to protect you. When someone has chronic infections, sometimes the pelvic floor will forget to let go even after an infection has resolved and it can FEEL like a UTI. I've treated a number of women for this exact presentation in clinic! If you live in the US, you can use this directory to find a provider near you: pelvicrehab.com Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, and thank you again for the request.

Your English is wonderful! And I am SO happy to hear that d-mannose has been such a helpful tool for you, it really did change my life. A few things to share: 1. I highly recommend the d-mannose powder over the pills, not only for trying to treat an acute UTI, but also for preventative doses 2. I do think it is possible to cure an acute UTI (if it caused by E. coli) with d-mannose, so long as you catch it early! 3. As far as pain management goes, I really like pyridium -- it is over the counter, and it numbs the bladder (but it will make you urinate bright orange!). I've used pyridium to manage the pain while treating an acute UTI with d-mannose! Let me know if you have any other questions and I wish you only the best 💕

Today is 2-17-2024. I am going to tell everyone the method I use for UTI. Not an E-Coli UTI. Just a regular UTI. I Hope this helps someone. Go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of fresh parsley. It is sold in “ bunches “. At home rinse the parsley off and put all of it…..stems and all…….into a blender filled with water. Grind it up. Then, pour the green water into a container and throw the ground up parsley remainder away. Keep in your refrigerator and 4 times a day……FOR ONE WEEK ( even if you start feeling fine, do not stop ) drink a cup of the parsley water. Drink it cold, hot, or put some sweetener in…….anything to help you tolerate it. This OUGHT to clear up the majority of UTI’s. It always has mine. Now, as a maintenance, do this maybe twice a year. Typically, I just gulp it down cold in a coffee type mug. Try it, and if you have success, you will learn to buy SEVERAL bunches of parsley at the time. Would REALLY REALLY appreciate hearing back from anyone on this. I started doing this around 40 years ago, and it worked UNTIL I got E-Coli and then I had to be treated. That one is a yucky experience !

I would like to give my experience with uti's, now first of all I am a guy, so uti's or less frequent, in some respects more serious with guys... I had issues with very small kidney stones which I suspect led to my uti, in which I discovered at my local Hospital after I was having trouble urinating and was promptly given antibiotics... By the third day after every dose I felt like I was going to pass out, went back to the hospital and they said it was all "in my head". I knew there had to be another way and I discovered D-Mannose. But I take the pills instead for a couple of reasons, one I find that if I am not careful how I store the powder it will get hard and un-useable, two- it makes it easier for me to dose out, I break open 3 capsules (1.5 grams) and pour it into at least 8 ounces of water, once a day, seems to work well for me... By the way I use the Now Brand...Men sometimes has to deal with this too...

I had several back to back UTI's for over a year. Prior to that I had been suffering for a long time with "almost" UTI's--testing showed no bacteria present. I finally went to a Functional Med Dr and she had me take a very expensive urine culture ($275) every time I got one to identify the exact bacteria. Each time I was put on a different antibiotic. The result was that my gut got totally destroyed even though I was taking probiotics. Interesting that a very expensive Dr who's supposed to be knowledgeable in natural healing didn't recommend this. I found out just like this gal did that D Mannose was the answer, but I must EMPHASIZE that I clearly wasn't drinking enough water, so I increased my intake exponentially. I thought I was drinking enough- about 8 10oz glasses, but in reality I wasn't. I'm now drinking 10-11 10 oz glasses a day (very intentially) and when I get UTI symptoms it's usually bc I've slacked off on drinking enough. I recently got another one and I'm back on the D Mannose along with an herbal tincture. Once this one clears up I'm going to do the maintenance that is recommended in this very good video.

In the last 4 months, I've been taking more than 7 rounds of antibiotics due to UTI. And it messed my gut microbiome, I often had constipation in some days, food allergies, etc. What I noticed was that my UTI always comes back when I consume high oxalates food, even though I took d-Mannose, oregano oil... And when I had an USG, even though it showed that I didn't have kidney stones, doctor found that I had a lot of crystals in my bladder. I thought the UTI and crystals was not related but it turns out that it was. One of the comment in this video mentioned a book titled "Toxic Superfoods" by Sally K. Norton and it's really eye-opening. I will change my diet starting from tomorrow ro low oxalate diet and I hope that this UTI will not come back anymore.

I also told me doctor about D Mannose. I’m 68. He’s around the same age. He does not do current research and had never heard of it! I hope to switch soon.

I think you mislead tons of people telling them to use D-Mannose for UTI’s, without SPECIFICALLY saying not to use it unless you have E-Coli.

Could some of you please advise me regarding chronic UTIs not caused by e. coli but by many different kinds of other germs/bacteria? When stressed I get many UTIs (6 since the end of August), although escherichia coli has not come back since I started taking d-mannose. Thanks for this great and instructive video !

I'm so sorry to learn about your struggles with chronic UTIs. While I'm ecstatic that d-mannose has knocked out E. coli, I really hope that you're able to figure out how to eliminate the other causes of your infections. I really wish I could be more helpful. Wishing you the best 💛

I bought the pill form so can I just mix the powder from the pill in a drink or do I have to swallow the pill. Also, does d mannose help yeast infections too
@bethanyrose9026 4 жыл бұрын
I've found that D-mannose may be helping to prevent UTIs for me, however I quickly discovered that once I already had a UTI, the only thing that cured it was the antibiotics. I tried to follow recommended doses of d mannose but was still miserable! I also tried the pills though so maybe next time I'll try out the powder.
@PelvicEmpowerment 4 жыл бұрын
I’ve found the powder to be much more effective than the pills, but I can only cure an acute UTI with dmannose powder if I catch the infection very early. Wishing you the best ❤️

You need to make sure you're also following a no carb diet for at least a few weeks along with taking d mannose

Awesome video!!! Love it! If you were to go on a mini getaway for 3 days or so and you know that you will be doing the beach/running/risky behavior type of things all day..would you suggest taking the maximum amount of servings in powder form which would be 2 servings each day or would you suggest more? Do you have to space out when you take the servings? For example: wake up take a serving, go to beach, then maybe go hiking and maybe go dancing later. So all day would be considered risky stuff when you’re away!
@PelvicEmpowerment 3 жыл бұрын
When I partake in all-day risky behavior, I usually take the d-mannose after each activity is over. So I would wake up, take my morning dose, go to the beach/hang out in my bikini, take a second dose, and then go hiking/exercise, take a third dose, and then go dancing in tight clothing and probably take a fourth dose after that. That being said, I'm not sensitive to d-mannose, and I don't often take more than two doses/day, so having a couple of days here and there that are outside of my typical routine doesn't worry me. That being said, I can't give individualized medical advice! If you aren't sure how much you should be taking and are not comfortable running a sort of trial-and-error experiment with yourself, I can only recommend seeking input from a healthcare provider you trust ❤️ Enjoy your mini-vacation 🤗

THANK YOU for the update! :) I'm curious - when you have sex, do you take your secondary dose before, or after? I've also read a lot about the imbedded infections that the other commenters are mentioning. I'm headed to a specialist next week, and I plan to ask about it. It's frustrating to think that the only doctor's really specializing in this are way over in the UK.
@PelvicEmpowerment 5 жыл бұрын
Thank you for watching ❤ Yes! I am learning about embedded infections from my comment section, too! I plan on deep-diving and really researching it in the next few weeks. I'd love to know more. I mentioned in another comment -- the reason I feel hesitant about an embedded infection being the case for me, is that when I don't take d-mannose, I don't have UTI symptoms (unless I do something "risky"). My UTIs always correlated with some sort of risky behavior (mostly sex). If I abstained from penetrative and oral sex, and got out of wet/sweaty clothes quickly, I wouldn't get chronic UTIs -- one or two, but not 10-12 (there was a period of time where I was not sexually active and this was the case). Regardless, I want to stay open to other possibilities for myself. And I want to learn more so that I can be a better women's health provider! As far as sex -- I pee afterwards and then go take my d-mannose :) I think you could take it before as well, if that works better for you!

Hi Tori, thank you so much for these super helpful video. I was in the hospital once for 2 weeks because of UTI. And now after 6 months i just got it again. Im on antibiotic prescribed by doctor and is still super worried that it will come back after this treatment. I really hope that after this batch of antibiotic dmannose will help me with UTI. But i have a few questions regarding the usage of dmannose. 1. Does it affect if I use it while using: birth control pill or any other supplements? 2. Do we have to take this religiously for the rest of our life to prevent UTI? If yes, does it have any other side effect since this is a type of sugar? 3. Does it help with BV as well since i read there are some claims about it helps with BV and i’m having BV and is planning to use boric acid suppositories to cure it. Thank you so much again for such a useful video

I am so, so sorry to hear about you having to go to the hospital due to a UTI. I'm really glad that you caught this most recent one early, and that you're getting the appropriate treatment. I hope that d-mannose will help you after this round of antibiotics, too, but remember that d-mannose is only effective if the bacteria causing your infections is E. coli! As for your questions: 1. I cannot point to any literature, but I can share my personal experience. I've used d-mannose while on and off of hormonal birth control, and have not noticed any change in efficacy of my birth control or my natural fertility. 2. I've been taking it every day for 3-4 years now I think. I'm not sure if I'll be taking it for the rest of my life, but my alternative was taking antibiotics for the rest of my life, it seemed. As far as side-effects, I have not personally experienced any. But that doesn't mean they don't exist. Every person's body is different, and I know just from reading my comments that d-mannose has given other people headaches, or made them feel light-headed. 3. Fascinating! I haven't heard that it's helpful with BV, and I have not personally used it to treat/prevent BV. I am a big fan of boric acid suppositories, though! If you'd like to learn more about boric acid, you can check out this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q-CWdMqnrL-bimQ.html I'm so glad this video was helpful for you! I hope you find your healing, soon 💛

I also get UTI s often but usually i can get rid of the just by drinking a lot. Sometimes you can flush them out. I did have very terrible UTI s while being with one boyfriend. Never before or after again.! Those were not curable and no katter how much i drank and how much D Mannose powder i took-it would not go away and i ended up taking antibiotics and was cured. I do not like antibiotics and try to avoid them.

@@PelvicEmpowerment yep not all UTi s are alike. Often i drank lots of cranberry juice and water and the next day it was ok again. 2 UTI s I had while with the same boyfriend I could not cure naturally at all...they were intense and painful! I always wondered why i had them only while with that guy...cause he was a clean freak. So maybe cause he showered several times a day he also washed away his good bacteria , so some horrid bacteria was able to grow on his pee pee.hahaha..but like I said, i did recently read that some lubricants on condoms can make it easier to get a uti...Perhaps cause if you have lubricant in your Urinary tract the bacteria is harder to flush out? Anyway i also had UTIs where i had no symptoms other than being very tired....no burning. Anyway the d-mannose did not help the first time but I have a UTI again and am using it again.lets see if it helps this time. Also....I read cranberry juice does not really help. So i wonder...if someone says they cured the uti with this or that...perhaps it would have just been ok with drinking enough.anyway i hope d-mannose helps this time cause i had my uti for a while.

I'll have to learn more about lubricant/condoms and the mechanism of action behind them potentially increasing someone's susceptibility to a UTI! Don't forget that d-mannose will only help to cure your current infection if the bug causing the infection is E. coli -- if it is a different bug, unfortunately d-mannose won't do the trick! I'm sorry you've been struggling with this infection -- I hope you get to feeling better as soon as possible ❤
