Can you cure a urinary tract infection without medication? Maybe Cranberry Juice?

Answer 1

Depends on the cause of the infection.

If it is due to a stone e.g. in the kidney, bladder or urinary tract, you need surgery or lithotripsy as the solution; medication only helps or gives you temporary relief.

If it is due to an injury or viral cause, it would not need medication.

If it is a mild infection that will generally pass off by itself, you need to take lots of fluids, change the pH of your urine; check the pH; if it is < 7.0 then, it is acidic and you need to change it to basic by taking a fluid that is alkaline; if on the other hand, it is a pH of over 7.0, then you need to take 500 mg of Vitamin C every day with the intent to convert your urine into acidic; this way, you will tend to retard the multiplication of the bacteria or the organisms causing infection.

One other thing that you may wish to do is take frequently water or fluid boiled with barley seeds.

Answer 3

I used to get those alot. I took the antibiotic for it so much that they didn't work anymore, like the bacteria that causes the infection built up an immunity to it or something. I went to a health food store and bought some concentrated cranberry pills, which I still take to this day, and I truly believe it works.

I also started taking a liquid substance called silver hydrosol, which is basically tiny, microscopic bits of silver suspended in distilled water. I know that sounds a bit kooky... at least that's what I thought when I first heard of it. Silver Hydrosol is what was the commonplace medication was for many, many things before antibiotics were invented in the early part of the 20th century. There is supposedly some sort of reaction that occurs between the silver and the enzymes that the bacteria need to live, that causes them to die. Silver Hydrosol is supposedly good for hundreds of problems. Ever hear of the term "bluebloods" (mostly a historical word) used to describe wealthy people, especially in the deep south? That term comes from the fact that they usually had real silverware, ate/drank from things made of silver, so naturally they are going to ingest tiny parts of silver along with their food and have a higher concentration of silver in their system... well they also noticed that they didn't get sick as often as "common people" which is what lead scientists/doctors/whoever (sorry I don't remember) to come up with silver hydrosol.

You can find silver hydrosol at health food stores too, and they can probably tell you more specific info about it than I just did. I don't know much but I DO know that since I have been taking it and the cranberry pills I have never gotten another UTI again.

Hope this info helps, & hope you feel better soon.

That's My Best Answer! Hope it can Help!

Answer 5

Cranberry is best as a preventative. You should get a test and a culture that way you can know if d-mannose will help or not. It isn't good to let a UTI go untreated. It can lead to dammaging the bladder, kidneys, and is stressful to the pevlic muscles.

If you a lot of UTI's you should discuss with your doctor what may be increasing your risk of them. In some cases there is more going on than just UTI's and treating what else is going on may take care of the uti's all together.

Answer 6

You need to see a Dr. the usual RX is for an antibiotic, and taking some yogurt with it is also helpful. Follow up with cranberry juice after the antibiotic regimen is completed. Cranberry juice alone will not clear the UTI and you will be at risk for kidney infection if not treated promptly. It is a serious infection it is cleared up easily if treated promptly. .

Take those antibiotics until they are gone!!! The infection will stay in your system and you may show symptems later. The bacteria, having been introduced to the antibiotics will develop an imunity. It will be much harder to treat a second time arround. Cranberry juice does help but this is because of the vitamin c. Take vitamin c tablets regularly to help prevent future infections.

Answer 8

It's better to use a prescription antibiotic alongside things that will counteract the candida caused by the antibiotics and then detox once you are over the infection. It would take more garlic and other natural antibiotics and herbs and vitamins for the urinary tract than you could stand to swallow in a day to do much good with a serious infection and would take much longer to get relief.

Answer 9

Only a change in diet can help your kidneys function better. Include foods in your diet that help build up your kidneys. These include sprouts, garlic, legumes, potatoes, bananas, papayas, watermelon, green vegetables, whole grains, yoghurt and beans.
