Mannose Ultrapure, Powder 200 g

When Antibiotics Aren't Enough. Statistically, 30% of women experience cystitis at least once in their lives. According to other data, this percentage is even higher. What is less known, due to its lower incidence, is that men can also suffer from this bladder condition. Medical treatment usually relies on antibiotics, but these are not always sufficient and, in any case, do not work as a preventive measure.

Mannose, often used in these contexts, is almost entirely absent in modern foods. Despite being a simple sugar (found in certain trees and shrubs), it does not contribute significant calories or cause an increase in blood sugar levels. It's easy to deduce that the name "Mannose" derives from "Manna," the food described in the Bible during the journey of the chosen people in the Sinai desert.

Mannose is an epimer of glucose. The D-Mannose form is a natural, highly pure hexose and a component of numerous plant polysaccharides (mannans). In the human body, it is an essential element of cell membranes. Mannose is widely used in many nutritional contexts in its pure form (D-Mannose).

What Is Cystitis? Cystitis is an inflammation of the urinary bladder, typically caused by a bacterial infection but can also result from other causes, such as chemical irritations or trauma. It is one of the most common urinary tract infections (UTIs) and can affect both men and women, although it is far more frequent in women due to their anatomy.

Common Symptoms of Cystitis: Frequent and urgent need to urinate, even with little urine; burning or pain during urination; pain or pressure in the lower abdomen; cloudy, dark urine with a strong odor; sometimes the presence of blood in the urine (hematuria); fever (in rare cases, when the infection spreads).

Main Causes: Bacterial infection, often caused by Escherichia coli, a bacterium found in the intestine that can reach the urethra; sexual activity, which can facilitate the entry of bacteria into the bladder; inadequate hygiene, such as wiping from back to front; other factors, including hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause), use of catheters, or structural abnormalities of the urinary tract.

Use: Take 1 to 2 times a day. Dissolve 6 scoops (approximately 3 grams) of Mannose in a glass of water and drink. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of small children.

Ingredients: D-Mannose powder.
