Cranberry Health Benefits

   The majority of physicians and other health professionals believe there is a clear association between a diet high in fruits and vegetables and a low risk of chronic disease. Phytonutrients (naturally derived plant compounds), particularly antioxidants, are increasingly being shown to help optimize human health.

   Cranberries contain proanthocyanidins (PACs) that can prevent the adhesion of certain bacteria, including E. coli, associated with urinary tract infections to the urinary tact wall. The anti-adhesion properties of cranberry may also inhibit the bacteria associated with gum disease and stomach ulcers.

   Recent scientific research shows that cranberries and cranberry products contain significant amounts of antioxidants and other phytonutrients that may help protect against heart disease, cancer and other diseases.

   The following health and nutrition research has been conducted on cranberries and cranberry products which highlights healthy benefits of cranberries and cranberry-derived products.

Though cranberry is most well known for its ability to support urinary tract health, an ever increasing dossier of emerging science has shown that cranberries may also provide health benefits throughout the body. Its dual anti-adhesion and antioxidant properties have established the cranberry status as the healthy berry.
