Benefits and Uses:
Cranberries are rich in antioxidants, which neutralize harmful free radicals that lead to chronic disease.
Some antioxidants present in cranberries are Proanthocyanidins, which support blood vessel health, Catechins, with anti carcinogenic and antidepressant properties, and Lutein, the eye protector. Cranberries are also abundant in Quercetin, a natural antihistamine, and Tannin, which prevents tooth decay.
Cranberries are packed full of phytonutrients that support cardiovascular health, immunity, and prevent cancer.
This fruit is touted as one of the best treatments for UTIs (urinary tract infections). Its efficacy lies in its ability to prevent bacteria from adhering to the walls of the urinary tract – thus the body can easily flush these pathogens out.
Men suffering from enlarged prostate may have UTI complications, and could benefit from trying cranberry.
Other:
Cranberry is safe for short, or long term use.
Cranberries do contain oxalates, so avoid over consumption if you have oxalate kidney stones.
