How to Naturally Treat UTI Symptoms
A UTI is caused when bacteria unwittingly gets pushed up inside the urethra and begins to multiply, causing that unbearable, painful burning which only a fellow sufferer can really understand.
Firstly, you probably need to drink more.
However, it is not as simple as that! Certain drinks are better than others when it comes to dealing with a UTI.
Your first choice should be plain water.
Sugary drinks should be avoided as the sugar can "feed" the bacteria, often causing it to multiply.
Caffeine should also be avoided as it can act as an irritant.
You should aim to drink at least 8 glasses of water each day.
This will help to flush out bacteria from the bladder and urinary tract.
Another drink of choice is unsweetened cranberry juice as this contains a component which prevents bacteria adhering to the bladder walls.
Blueberry juice also has similar properties.
Next, Vitamin C is important to help eliminate bacteria.
Eat vitamin-rich fruits and vegetables such as oranges, broccoli, strawberries, kiwi fruit and sweet potato.
You might also like to consider taking a Vitamin C supplement.
Another good strategy is to avoid wearing tight fitting clothing and panties made from synthetic fabrics.
Very often, these conditions allow for the multiplication of bacteria, either directly causing the condition or making existing conditions even worse.
If you would like to know how to naturally treat UTI symptoms, try wearing cotton panties, avoiding tights and tight-fitting trousers.
