Can Cranberry Juice or Supplements Reduce the Risk or Prevent Urinary Tract Infections?
Today I am tackling the question above because it is something I get asked all the time from my patients who want to reduce their risk or prevent a UTI from occurring.
Urinary Tract Infections are very common in women. Most will experience at least one UTI in their lifetime and over 10% experience one each year. Most UTI's are treated with a short-term course of antibiotics, but some develop recurrent infections.
There have been a lot of studies on the potentinal benefits of cranberry juice and pills and today we are going to go over some exciting new conclusions. Watch to find out more and how this could help you.

Working as a kidney doctor, I found that my patients were often unaware of just how important diet and lifestyle were and how often they felt unsupported by generic advice to “eat healthy”. The home cook in me hated hearing this, so I set out to find a better way.
I began to combine my medical training and love of food, making videos of simple recipes that were based on science and packed with flavor. Instead of just saying “eat healthy” to my patients, I could give them the resources they needed to make a real difference in their health.
