Medica Herbs Cranberry Forte 60 Capsules

The Medica Herbs Cranberry Forte 60 Capsules dietary supplement is a product with a simple composition containing an extract from the fruit of the large cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon), enclosed in a convenient capsule form.

The large-fruited cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is native to North America. It is a perennial, year-round green shrub. It blooms from June to August and produces a fruit at the site of the abundant blossoms—a dark red berry that ripens within three months of flowering. It has remarkable flavor and health-promoting potential.

It is primarily known for its effects on the urinary system. Cranberries have a diuretic effect and have therefore been used in natural medicine for years to support precisely those organs involved in the production, storage, and elimination of urine.

Studies have shown that cranberry fruit extract prevents the recurrence of urinary tract infections in women [1].

In addition, cranberries contain proanthocyanidins, vitamins C, B1, B2, A and E, as well as micro and macro elements such as iron, phosphorus, magnesium and potassium.

In summary, the Medica Herbs Cranberry Forte 60 Capsules dietary supplement is a product containing a naturally obtained extract from the fruit of the large-fruited cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon), which is rich in substances that have a positive effect on maintaining a healthy urinary tract.
