Cranfort Capsules x30 is a supplement developed to help reduce the incidence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and promote daily urinary comfort. Its formula combines cranberry extract, lactoferrin, and vitamin B6, acting on different mechanisms related to bacterial adhesion and the balance of the immune system. Cranberry extract is rich in proanthocyanidins (PACs), compounds that help hinder the attachment of bacteria such as E. coli to the walls of the urinary tract, promoting their natural elimination. Lactoferrin contributes to immune defense and microbiological balance, while vitamin B6 supports the normal functioning of the immune system and energy metabolism. This supplement is particularly indicated for people with recurrent episodes of urinary discomfort or a tendency to urinary tract infections, functioning as a preventive support and maintenance of urinary balance. - Contributes to urinary tract comfort. - Helps reduce the adhesion of E. coli bacteria. - Supports the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infections. - Strengthens the immune system. - Formula with cranberry, lactoferrin, and vitamin B6. - Indicated for continuous preventive use. What is E. coli bacteria? Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a bacterium that is part of the normal intestinal flora of humans and other animals. That is, in most cases, it lives naturally in the intestine without causing any problems and may even play a role in the balance of the digestive system. When can E. coli be a problem? Some specific strains of E. coli can become pathogenic (disease-causing) when: - They leave the intestine and reach other areas of the body. - They ascend the urinary tract (urethra → bladder → kidneys). - They find favorable conditions for proliferation. E. coli and urinary tract infections: The most common condition associated with this bacterium is urinary tract infection (cystitis). Approximately 70% to 90% of uncomplicated urinary tract infections are caused by E. coli. Symptoms associated with E. coli (urinary) infection: - Burning sensation when urinating. - Frequent urge to urinate. - Feeling of a constantly full bladder. - Cloudy urine or urine with a strong odor. - Discomfort in the pelvic area.
