At least two of the closes friends I have are suffering from urinary tract infection. I have no clear knowledge of it, but I am concerned about my friends. They experience pain in their lower abdomen. One of them frequents the john. She said, it's almost uncontrollable. I wonder what causes it. One reason commonly said is, not taking in enough water. So far, the only remedy I know is coconut juice and cranberry juice. Learned it from dad. He said, coconut juice cleanses the urinary tract. Maybe there are other suggestions you can share. Post them here.

The best and the most affordable way is drinking lots of water. Another remedy is to drink a glass of cranberry or apple juice (natural juice is way better) first thing in the morning an hour before eating and drink another glass an hour also after eating in the evening.

I suffered UTI when I was in college and aside from the medications prescribed by my doctor, I also increased my intake of fluids because when you take in more fluids, your urinary tract will be cleansed. The bacteria will also be washed out and the inflammation subsides. You also try to prevent its occurrence by keeping your underwear clean and wiping from front to back if you are a female.

Your friends are not alone. So many women (and men) suffer from UTI's or Urinary Tract Infections. There are a lot of natural remedies talked about on the internet. But most are only half-way effective at stopping not only the pain but getting rid of the infection as well. I've started a site that has a lot of great information on this subject as well as the chance to get an e-book with the most powerful solutions I've found that are safe and natural for this problem that is all to common for many of us. You need a plan that teaches you how to use the natural solutions for maximum effectiveness. Check it out here- http://urinaryhealthjournal.org
