ICONFIT URINACON is a reliable choice for those who want to support a healthy urinary system and ensure overall well-being. The product contains D-mannose, nettle powder, and cranberry extract.
D-mannose is structurally similar to glucose and is naturally found in some fruits, including cranberries, apples, oranges, and peaches. Unlike other sugars, it doesn’t significantly affect blood sugar levels. Instead, D-mannose is slowly absorbed in the digestive tract and then excreted in the urine. Its primary benefit is its ability to help prevent urinary tract infections by preventing E. coli bacteria from attaching to the urinary tract walls. D-mannose binds to the bacteria, keeping them from adhering to the bladder and urinary tract walls, and helps flush them out during urination.
Nettles have been used in traditional medicine for centuries for various purposes, including supporting urinary tract health. Nettles possess natural diuretic properties, which may increase urine output, helping flush bacteria from the urinary tract.
Cranberries are well-researched and commonly recommended for the prevention and, to a lesser extent, treatment of urinary tract infections. The proanthocyanidins (PAC) in cranberries may prevent E. coli bacteria from adhering to the urinary tract lining. Additionally, cranberries help acidify the urine, which protects against infections.
Symptoms of a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI):
- Burning sensation during urination
- Frequent urge to urinate
- Cloudy or bloody urine
- Strong-smelling urine
- Lower abdominal pain
- Fever, nausea, or chills
Primary Functions of the Urinary System:
- Blood filtration: The urinary tract, especially the kidneys, filters the blood, removing waste, toxins, and metabolic byproducts.
- Urine formation: Filtered substances in the kidneys combine to form urine, which contains water, electrolytes, and dissolved substances.
- Water and electrolyte balance: The urinary system regulates water and electrolytes to meet the body’s needs.
- Acid-base balance: The urinary tract maintains pH levels by excreting hydrogen ions.
- Metabolic waste elimination: The urinary system removes excess nitrogen and metabolic byproducts from protein metabolism.
- Nutrient storage: The urinary system helps store important nutrients, like glucose and amino acids.
- Immune support: Substances in the urinary tract, such as immunoglobulins, help protect urinary organs from infections.
How to Use: Adults should take 4 capsules daily with a glass of water. It is important to start using it at the first signs of a mild urinary tract infection.
