- Highly Concentrated and standardised - Prevent sticking of bacteria to urinary tract Cranberry, which is rich in polyphenols, including anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins, has been found to have various effects beneficial to human health. This benefit cannot be duplicated with grape, orange, apple, or white cranberry juice. Sugar content and pH have been eliminated as the agents in the juice responsible for the anti-adhesive activity. These effects have been associated with polyphenols in the red cranberry. These anthocyanins are well absorbed based on urinary excretion after ingestion of cranberry juice. Traditionally, cranberry juice was thought to cause acidification of the urine resulting in a bacteriostatic effect. However, recent research has demonstrated that a bacterial antiadhesion mechanism maybe responsible. Proanthocyanidins with unique molecular structures have been isolated from cranberry fruit that exhibit potent bacterial antiadhesion activity. Cranberry juice are often mixed with other juice or added with lots of sugar to mask its very tart taste. Cran Clearance are highly concentrated extract of Cranberry anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins. Scientific References 1. Urinary excretion of anthocyanins in humans after cranberry juice ingestion.
