Mechanism of Action

Cranberry contains Type-A proanthocyanidin which helps to treat Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) by inhibiting the adherence of bacteria to bladder and urethra. Saw palmetto helps in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, increases urinary flow rate and anti-inflammatory activities by Inhibiting action of 5 a-reductase, which catalyzes the metabolism of testosterone to DHT, due to the free fatty acid content of the fruit's lipophilic extracts. Pygeum contains chemicals like (atraric acid, ferulic acid, and beta-sitosterol) which act as 5 Alpha reductase inhibitor. These chemicals also help to reduce urinary tract disorders. Tomatoes contain potassium, also have diuretic properties, and helps to reduce the risk of urinary tract infections and bladder cancer. Uva ursi contains arbutin, a hydroquinone glucoside which can reduce bacteria in the urine, increase urine flow, and reduce swelling.
