Why Should I Take Cranberry Pills?
Often used in sauces and juices, cranberries may not be the first thing that pops into your head when you think about nutritional supplements.
However, these small red berries are considered to be a superfood due to the nutrients and health benefits they can provide (1).
Here's how cranberry pills can be beneficial, especially as a supplement for women's health.
What Are Cranberry Pills?
In their most basic form, cranberry pills are simply a capsule containing powdered cranberries. Often, additional supplements or vitamins are also added (2).
Pills are a more diet-friendly way to get the benefits of cranberries, as they don't contain the added sugar or ingredients found in juice or other cranberry products.
It is much easier to get a daily dose of cranberries in a supplement form rather than trying to find ways to incorporate raw berries or other products into meals.
Potential Benefits of Cranberry Pills
Cranberry pills might be a great addition to your healthcare routine if you're looking to get more antioxidants in your diet or promote better urinary tract health.
As with any supplement, discussing any health concerns with your doctor before taking them is a good idea.
Beneficial Antioxidants
Cranberries are full of beneficial nutrients, including antioxidants, which may provide a defense against a plethora of health conditions (3).
This is likely because of antioxidants' ability to counteract the effects of free radicals, which are potentially damaging molecules that your body can come in contact with in many ways.
While new research suggests that antioxidants alone won't necessarily prevent chronic conditions, getting more antioxidants, especially from fruits and vegetables, is beneficial to your health and can reduce oxidative stress on the body (4).
Protection Against Urinary Tract Infections
Cranberries are a well-known remedy for lower urinary tract infections (UTIs). Many believe that they work by making it difficult for E. coli to attach to tissues in the urinary tract (5).
More research on this is needed. For now, anyone suffering from an infection should not use cranberry pills as a substitute for a consultation with a doctor and a prescription for antibiotics.
However, these supplements may help prevent infections from developing in the first place when taken regularly (6).
The ability of cranberry supplements to promote good urinary tract health makes them an especially good choice for women.
While anyone can get a urinary tract infection, women are more likely to suffer from them, with 40% experiencing this type of infection at some point (7).
Are Cranberry Pills a Good Addition to Your Health Routine?
While they can provide many benefits, the best reason to take cranberry pills is their protection against UTIs.
Cranberry is one of the best options if you simply want to protect your urinary tract health.
