Yeast Infection & UTI : Know the difference?

The difference is the cause: UTI is caused by too much E.coli bacteria in the urethra and yeast is the troublemaker with a yeast infection. My favorite choice to cure UTI is D-Mannose powder combine with diluted cranberry juice“cranwater” all day long diluted with filtered water. Drink it throughout the day. Buy D-Mannose powder in the bag container on Amazon. D-Mannose taste like sugar water. Not the bad taste at all.

I recommend unsweetened high-quality cranberry juice from Lakewood or Knudsen. Amazon will ship a 1 – 6 pack. This juice can be kept in the storage for when you need it. Like when a UTI suddenly wakes you up in the middle of the night and you start making trips to the bathroom every 15 minutes or less and all you think about is antibiotics your doctor might be available in the morning to send it to you.  You can dilute this juice with water on 1:10 ratio and keep sipping it throughout the day. Check Trader Joe’s for the unsweetened cranberry juice, sometimes they have a really good price. Remember – no sugar and it has to be organic. Cranberry is great for keeping your kidney and bladder health and surprisingly helps your liver to detoxifying! Make sure you pick the right one.

This is another method to treat UTI:

Acute UTI – take 1 heap tsp of “D-Mannose powder” + drink parsley tea + 1 tbsp of monolaurin. If you are OK taking Chinese Herbal formula, I will add “Ba Zheng Tang” and of course, stop eating any yeast and sugar contained foods. Even do this at once will cure UTI. You do not need to wait to go to see your doctor to get prescription for it.

Chronic recurring UTI – Go over your diet and lifestyle, cut down sugar and yeast contained foods and I recommend to go for Candida detox protocol. I have my own protocol which kills Yeast, Fungus, Bacteria overgrowth includes SIBO.
