Cranberries are good for a number of reasons. The most commonly know reason is urinary tract health, but there are a lot more. Check out this website www.cranberryinstitute.org/healthresearch.htm I actually do not care much for the taste of cranberries, but there are cranberry pills out there that you can take if you are like me. I use to get a lot of urinary tract infections in my early 20's and I took the pills a lot. They seemed to help. They also have a lot of antioxidants in them. I hope this helps! Stay healthy and take care!

Cranberries can help prevent urinary tract infections and stomach ulcers. Now, new research shows they may also fight gum disease.
Researchers at the University of Laval discovered a compound found in cranberries may prevent bacteria from adhering to teeth below the gum line.
