Medica Herbs Cranberry Forte 60 Capsules

The dietary supplement Medica Herbs Cranberry Forte 60 capsules is a product with a simple composition that contains 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, evergreen plant in the form of a shrub. It blooms from June to August and produces a fruit at the site of the overflowing flowers - a dark red berry that ripens within three months after flowering. It has remarkable taste properties and health-promoting potential.

It is especially known for its effect on the urinary system. Cranberries have a diuretic effect and have therefore been used for years in naturopathy to support exactly the organs involved in the production, storage, and excretion of urine.

According to studies, cranberry fruit extract prevents the recurrence of urinary tract infections in women [1].

Furthermore, cranberries contain proanthocyanidins, vitamins C, B1, B2, A, and E, as well as micro- and macroelements such as iron, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium.

In summary, the dietary supplement Medica Herbs Cranberry Forte 60 capsules is a product that contains a naturally derived extract from the fruit of the large cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon), rich in substances that positively affect the maintenance of a healthy urinary tract.
