Long been used by Native Americans to relief kidney and urinary discomforts, cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.) is a rich source of health powerful compounds like organic acids, flavonols, pentacyclic triterpenoids, anthocyanins and proanthocyanidin (PACs).
Among natural non-antimicrobial solutions, supplementation with cranberries has been gaining specific attention for the prevention of UTIs (urinary tract infections), conditions where one or more pathogenic microorganisms (mainly Escherichia coli) exceed a threshold quantity in the urinary tract.
Reproducing complexity of the polyphenolic profile of the fruit, Anthocran® is a highly standardized cranberry extract, characterized by one of the highest PACs content among available products on the market: a botanical solution in supporting urinary tract health, at all ages.
With a number of useful components taken from cranberries, Anthocran® is a valid support for the maintenance of wellbeing in people prone to urinary tract discomforts.
Three recent human trials demonstrate Anthocran® is effective in supporting urinary tract health in young adults, elderly men, even those experiencing moderate prostate conditions and healthy adolescents.
