Bladder (cystitis) and kidney (pyelonephritis) infections

Cystitis is a very common disease in women and girls. Most cystitis is caused by contamination of the urinary tract by intestinal bacteria. These infections are called "urethritis" when the bacteria are found in the urethra, "cystitis" when they are found in the bladder and "pyelonephritis" when they reach the kidneys.

E-coli is the germ responsible for 90% of cystitis and urinary tract infections. This germ is normally part of the intestinal flora.

Whatever the type of pathology, conventional medicine will use antibiotics. Indeed, it should not be forgotten that this type of chronic or poorly treated infection can be dangerous since chronic kidney infection can lead to kidney failure.

These conventional treatments by antibiotic therapy are not always effective but unfortunately they very often induce side effects. Antibiotics do not distinguish between harmful microbes that need to be killed and "friendly" bacteria that are necessary for the proper balance of the intestinal and vaginal flora. Some of the bacteria in the flora are destroyed by the antibiotics, which leads to side effects such as diarrhea or vaginal infections.

In addition, even if most of us tolerate antibiotics well, we must not forget that every year many people are hospitalized for allergic reactions following the use of antibiotics.

The remaining 10% of urinary tract infections are due to bacteria such as chlamydia, mycoplasma, neisseria gonorrheae. They are transmitted by sexual contact and do not respond to the natural treatment I propose below (D-mannose). In these cases, treatment with antibiotics seems to be indicated and effective.

  • Absorb a lot of liquids.

People prone to urinary tract infections should orient their menus towards antibacterial and non-irritating foods (caffeine, chocolate, alcohol...) and beware of certain foods that modify the acidity of the urine (animal fats, refined cereals and sugars...) and promote infection.

It is important to drink plenty of water and fluids that dilute the concentrations of bacteria in the urine and increase the frequency of urination, thus flushing out infectious microorganisms more quickly. The longer urine sits in the bladder, the more bacteria will grow, and the more intense the burning and other symptoms of the disease.

- To prevent or avoid cystitis, prepare barley tea with lemon. Start with 0.550 l of water or herbal tea and then with 0.275 l every 20 minutes for three hours. Add a heaping teaspoon of baking soda every hour to make your urine more alkaline.

  • Cranberry and blueberry.

After testing a variety of juices, including grapefruit, mango, guava, orange and pineapple, the researchers found that only blueberry and cranberry juices contain the chemicals to neutralize the power of infectious germs to cling to the inner lining of the bladder. It is recommended to take between half a cup and two cups a day.

  • A simple sugar, the D-Mannose, a natural alternative to antibiotics

D-Mannose, a simple sugar cousin of glucose, coats the walls of the urinary tract. This sugar is also found in relatively large quantities in peaches, apples, oranges and certain berries such as blueberries.

For cystitis and other urinary tract infections, it is a real and effective alternative to antibiotics

Indeed, if it is indeed an E-coli infection, D-Mannose alone cures more than 90% of cystitis in two days and without killing any bacteria!

To cause cystitis or a urinary tract infection, the bacteria must find a way to adhere to the cells in the walls of the bladder and urinary tract. To do this, it uses small hairs called "bangs", the end of which is made up of a glycoprotein (a combination of protein and carbohydrate) called lectin, which is programmed to attach itself to the first mannose sugar molecule it encounters. Mannose molecules (produced naturally by the cells of the urinary tract) cover the surface of the cells of the urinary tract. Thus they act as "receptors", allowing the E-coli fringe to bind to the urinary cells like a velcro. If, by any means, the E-coli reaching the urethra, fail to attach to this surface, they will be expelled during the following micturition.

This is what happens when you take in D-mannose. The latter will be found floating in the urine. The E-Coli will attach to it as they would normally attach to the mannose of the urinary walls. Bacteria and D-mannose are thus eliminated through the urine. The few E-coli that do manage to linger along the urinary tract are easy prey for white blood cells and other agents of the immune system, which in turn eliminate them.

  • General Measures

- Eat more foods rich in vitamin E, which protects the urinary tract.

- Eat raw garlic several times a day and asparagus to drain the urinary tract.

- Prepare infusions of parsley, matricaria, meadowsweet and borage.

- Two days of semi-fasting, followed by a day of raw fruits and vegetables, provide rapid relief in most cases.

- Reduce your amount of animal fat.
