Urinary Tract Defense™

This combination of two clinically tested ingredients – hibiscus and cranberry – helps maintain the health of the urinary tract and promotes optimal immune response.*

Hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa)
In a clinical trial, participants experienced up to a 77% improvement in urinary tract health after use of a specialized hibiscus extract. These benefits are believed to be associated with the bladder protective effects of flavonoids, such as gossypetin, which are found in hibiscus.*1,2

Cranberry (Vaccinum macrocarpon)
Cranberry is a source of plant compounds known as proanthocyanidins. These compounds have been shown to promote a healthy immune response in the urinary tract as well as having protective effects for the bladder wall.*3,4

Hibiscus flowers are used in making tea and wine, as a food coloring, and for their health benefits. This plant is native to West Africa and the East Indies, but is now cultivated throughout the tropics. Much of the world’s supply of hibiscus comes from China and Thailand. In southern India, the leaves and flowers are soaked in water, ground into paste, and used as a natural shampoo.
