UTI-Clear

UTI-Clear from Native Remedies is a herbal remedy to support bladder, urinary tract, and urinary system health.

Because some types of urinary tract infections can deteriorate into serious or severe infections affecting the kidneys, therefore if the herbal supplements have not helped during this initial supplementation period, you should consult a qualified doctor for further diagnosis and treatment.

UTI-Clear Ingredients: Review of Scientific Evidence

We have found scientific studies confirming the effectiveness of UTI-Clear herbal components.

  • 1. Agathosma betulina (Buchu)
    Buchu has been used traditionally to help cleanse the urinary tract and act as a natural tonic, helping to flush out and cleanse the bladder and entire urinary tract system. Buchu has mild antibacterial, antispasmodic and diuretic activity. It is particularly useful in painful and burning urination.

  • 2. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (Bearberry)
    Arctostaphylos uva ursi is one of the best natural urinary antiseptics and has been extensively used in herbal medicine.
    Uva ursi has historically been used as a remedy for urinary tract infections, cystitis (bladder inflammation), and kidney stones. In fact, until the discovery of sulfa drugs and antibiotics, uva ursi was the treatment of choice for bladder and related infections.

    Arbutin, the main active compound of uva ursi, is a phenolic glycoside that becomes hydrolyzed to hydroquinone. Both chemicals contribute to the antiseptic effects in the urinary tract. Arbutin alone has been reported to relieve pain from kidney stones, cystitis (bladder infection) and nephritis (kidney inflammation).

    Clinical research proves traditional use of uva ursi as an antiseptic and diuretic with soothing and strengthening properties:

  • 3. Achillea millefolium (Yarrow)
    Another powerful ingredient in UTI-Clear is Achillea millefolium.
    Historically, Yarrow leaf (Achillea millefolium), named after Achilles, who used extracts of this plant to treat wounds, has been used as anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, spasmolytic, haemostatic and digestive remedy.
    Yarrow contains alkamides and volatile oils rich in sesquiterpene lactones, which act as soothing agents and natural astringents. Yarrow can therefore be beneficial in supporting a healthy systemic environment within the bladder and urinary system.

    Moderate antibacterial activity has been documented for Achillea against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Bacillus subtillus, Mycobacterium smegmatis, Escherichia coli, Shigella.

  • 5. Avena sativa (Green Oats)
    Avena sativa, more commonly known as oats, has long been used as a cereal grain. However, oat grain does also have many medicinal properties.

  • 6. Hypericum perforatum (St. John’s wort)

  • 7. Echinacea angustifolia
    Echinacea is a popular immune-system stimulant used to prevent colds and other infections.

    Studies show (1-3) that one of the key manners in which echinacea enhances immune function is by enhancing the ability of macrophages to engulf and destroy foreign matter. The specific components of echinacea responsible for this effect are the polysaccharides, alkylamides, and cichoric acid.

  • 8. Vaccinium myrtillus (Bilberry)
    Bilberry is used to treat diarrhea, menstrual cramps, eye problems, varicose veins, venous insufficiency, and other circulatory problems. Bilberries have powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties (1-2).
