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.
