Cranberries have long been known for their medicinal properties and you will also find that cranberries are also recommended for clearing up urinary tract infections as well. It is said that the cranberries inhibits bacteria from clinging where they shouldn’t be. For the purposes as a cure for yeast infections, cranberries can be taken in a few different forms. It should also be noted that this remedy doesn’t always work for everyone. However, as this is a particularly painless and easy remedy there really is no harm in trying this out. Unless of course, you’re allergic to cranberries, in which case I would suggest you stay well away from this remedy! For the people for whom this remedy works though, you will find that they also take the cranberries as sort of a preventative as well as a curative, something along the lines of an apple a day keeping the doctor away. Fresh cranberries of any type is generally good for you, and if you can stand to eat the berries then you shouldn’t need to resort to any of the other methods of taking cranberries. Until of course, when cranberries go out of season! Quite a few people can’t stomach the unsweetened juice of cranberries and so will avoid this form of cranberry intake. I say "unsweetened" here because you’re trying to combat the yeast infection, not aid it. And since yeast thrives on sugars the unsweetened form of cranberry juice is, I’m afraid, what you will have to take. Cranberry pills are what quite a lot of people will turn to if they can’t take the unsweetened cranberries in natural form. Readily available from most health food stores, these cranberry pills are almost as good as the real thing, and added to which they’re also a good supplement to take with any other treatment you might be getting for your yeast infection. Always be sure to check that your various treatments won’t interact with each other to give you a more serious health problem. Remember, when taking any medication of any kind it’s always best to consult a qualified medical practitioner or health specialist before proceeding any further.
