D-Mannoose and UTI prevention
I've read that taking D-Mannoose can flush toxins from bladder and kidneys. But don't take too much
Anyone have any experiences to share w this? I'm experiencing reoccurring UTIs. Was taking AZO and pumpkin for bladder support
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Kidney & Bladder Support Group.
I'm on antibiotics now for the fifth time. Prolapsed bladder n rectum. Yuk. Got D-Manoose today to take. Also take cranberry supplement cranberry juice and pumpkin. Doing exercises and go to pelvic floor PT. Seeing urologist to see if it needs surgery.
My weight is decent, 123 pds
And have diverticulitis) gastroparesis/gastritis.
Lol...that's enough for me😂
@holly55 I’m sorry you are on your 5th round of antibiotics. Is it for UTI if you don’t mind me asking, since that is what this discussion is about? It is also about
D-Mannoose or D-Mannose (I’ve seen different spellings.) Is it a supplement thought to be helpful for preventing & / or treating UTI? I’m not familiar with it. I would like to learn more. Sometimes I think traditional Drs don’t have a lot of background training in dietary, supplements or vitamin treatments.
I was looking for more information on D-mannose. Specifically how much is too much. Some say too much can cause kidney damage, but they never say how much is too much. I've been taking it for awhile now to help prevent recurring UTIs. For the last six months I also take Methanamine. I'm having my first break through UTI in three months currently and am back on antibiotics. This is the longest I have been without a UTI in two years. I credit the Methanamine and my new doctor.
I use cranberry capsules twice a day. No uti’s
