Description
"D-Mannose" is a supplement containing a naturally occurring sugar found in fruits like cranberries and apples. It is known for its ability to bind to E. coli bacteria in the urinary tract, preventing them from adhering to the bladder lining and aiding their removal through urine. This mechanism helps maintain urinary health and supports bladder function. Frequently included in targeted formulations, this supplement remains a distinct choice for promoting microbial balance in the urinary system.
