CRANFIX is a unique combination of cranberry extract with vitamin C, selenium and zinc, designed to contribute to the normal function of the immune system of individuals suffering from recurrent urinary tract infections. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections.
For most urinary tract infections, a microorganism, the bacterium Escherichia coli (E.coli), is responsible, which colonizes the large intestine and causes 80% of urinary tract infections in adults.
E.coli has the unique ability to adhere to the cells of the urethra walls and cause recurrent infections as it resists the body's natural mechanisms to remove it after antibiotic treatment.
These adaptation mechanisms strain the body's immune system.
CRANFIX, thanks to its rich in proanthocyanidins (PACs) cranberry extract, inhibits the ability of E.coli bacteria to adhere to the urinary epithelium. Vitamin C, selenium and zinc help in the smooth functioning of the immune system.
CRANFIX delivers a steady and guaranteed amount of 18mg PACs per capsule. With just 2 capsules of CRANFIX daily, the patient receives the minimum amount of PACs (36mg) required for the antibacterial action of Cranberry extract.
