Causes of UTIs
A UTI is caused by bacteria in your urinary system, which invades and sticks to the lining of your bladder. The bacteria travel from the anus to enter through your urethra, AKA the tube that carries pee out of your body. Women happen to have shorter urethras than men, which means bacteria are more likely to travel to the bladder or kidneys and trigger an infection.
Common UTI causes include:
- Not peeing after sex
- Wiping from back to front after going to the bathroom
- Urinary tract blockages like kidney stones
- Enlarged prostate glands in men and constipation in children, which make it more difficult to empty the bladder
- Conditions that require urinary catheters (a tube in the bladder that drains urine)
- A weakened immune system as the result of diabetes, HIV, or chemotherapy

Protect yourself from painful UTIs now.
While the usual treatment (and even prevention) protocols for a UTI include antibiotics, taking antibiotics too often can be harmful to your body and can even cause yeast infections. The last thing you want is to cure one infection only to find you have another in its place. Thankfully, all-natural UTI protection does exist in cranberries – thanks to PACs – the cranberry’s active molecule.
What do Cranberry Pills Do?
Scientists used to believe that cranberries guarded against UTIs by making urine more acidic, which in turn produces a less conducive environment for bacteria like E. coli, which are often the culprit. But in recent years, studies have landed on a different understanding: it appears cranberries make it more challenging for invasive bacteria to stick to the walls of the urinary tract. The nutrients in cranberries may alter the bacteria, so they are unable to stick to the urinary tract, or the cranberries create a slippery surface on the urinary tract walls that makes it difficult for bacteria to get a grip!
How One Utiva a Day Can Help Guard Against UTIs
Cranberries contain a molecule known as proanthocyanidins (or PACs), which are shown to inhibit bacteria from sticking to the bladder. Utiva is an all-natural UTI supplement which contains 36 mg of PACs at a concentration of 15%. Not only is this one of the highest concentrations on the market–it also happens to be the one that’s medically proven to be effective! Utiva uses the standard scientific method DMAC/A2 to measure PACs and ensure they are of the highest quality. Extracted from 100% whole, fresh, local cranberries, just one pill a day can help keep UTIs at bay without the need to resort to harsh antibiotics once you already have an infection.
