Natural
Remedies & Treatments for UTIs
I.
Drinking Plenty of Pure Water
It
helps to flush the harmful bacteria out. Not drinking enough water - an
essential, vital nutrient - can increase the risk of urinary tract infections.
Dark-yellow urine and/or infrequent urination are some of the symptoms of
dehydration. Adult women should consume around six to eight (6-8) cups of
fluids or beverages each day.
II.
Taking Vitamin C
Eating
fruits and vegetables loaded with vitamin C helps to acidify urine and,
therefore, eliminate pathogenic bacteria from the urinary tract. Also, taking
vitamin c supplement can be of great help here.
III.
Eating Yogurt
Yogurt
contains naturally occurring probiotics which are very important in keeping bad
bacteria away from the urinary tract.
IV.
Sipping Cranberry Juice
Cranberries
have a combination of acidic substances, among others, which prevent the
fimbria (hair-like bacteria) from clinging onto the bladder and urethral
lining.
V.
Using Baking Soda
Drinking
a glass of water mixed with half of a teaspoon of baking soda has been found
helpful in reducing the burning sensation while urinating.
VI.
Applying Heating Pads
Burning
and pain can be reduced by applying a heating pad over the pubic area. Be cautious
to avoid skin burns.
VII.
