I just read a question about Urinary Infection and everyone told the guy to drink cranberry juice. Why? (i mean, do you know how it acts?)

I can't believe no one knows the answer to this.
Cranberries have anti-toxins that clean out the urinary tract.
Always use 100% juice.

Like many other fruits and berries, cranberries is a great antioxidant and can help fight infections and cancer. So, needless to say it's great when you have a cold (and also orange juice). But don't keep drinking the cranberry juice cocktail, it's mostly sugar.
Also, be aware that plenty of cranberries and cranberry juice can harden your stool.

Cranberry juice has an indigestible enzyme or acid that passes through the body and kidneys as waste product. This enzyme or acid accumulates in the bladder until you evacuate. During this wait time, it reacts with the bacteria in the urine in a manner that prevents it from attaching to the bladder wall. It gives the bladder wall an opportunity to fight the bacteria already attached to it.

Cranberry has small microscopic animals (look like SeaMonkeys) that feed off the bacteria in your kidneys and bladder. When they die, their bodies turn into very acidic waste that creates a very strong acid
