Much in the same way cranberry works, ClearTract interferes with the ability for bacteria to cling to the urinary tract lining, this is sometimes called the "anti-adherence effect" ClearTract however goes beyond cranberry by utilizing a more potent "anti-adherence" compound called d-mannose for the urinary tract known and accomplishes more than cranberry has ever been able to achieve.Most Bladder Infections are caused by the bacteria called Escherichia coli that contain tiny projections that glue it to the lining of the urinary tract. That is why urination does not remove the bacteria and infection occurs. Now there is a new product that these bacteria are highly attracted to, In fact they would rather bind to this substance than the lining of the urinary tract. When the proper dose is taken the bacteria promptly detach from the urinary tract lining and bind to this substance. Now the freely floating bacteria attached to this substance is then eliminated upon urination flushing the infection away. ClearTract can be very effective, especially in those who experience chronic problems, and it doesn"t have the side-effects or other problems associated with antibiotics.New Solution for Common Bladder InfectionsConventional doctors typically have used antibiotics to treat cystitis. However, doctors are having an increasingly unsuccessful time treating them with antibiotics, most likely due to antibiotic resistance and the fact than only a few of the commonly used antibiotics achieve adequate levels in the urinary tract to be effective.Bladder infections have long baffled doctors -- and agonized patients -- with their resiliency. A strong dose of antibiotics can bring relief, but the painful infection often returns in as little as a few days.What is Happening here ?In a report published recently researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis explain why bladder infections are so hard to beat. It turns out that E. coli, the most abundant bacterium in the human body and the cause of most bladder infections, can dodge antibiotics by invading the immune-system cells that line the wall of the bladder."Before this study, nobody knew that E. coli could live inside immune-system cells, " says David M. Baorto, M.D., Ph.D., fellow in laboratory medicine at the School of Medicine and lead author of the study. "They apparently can take shelter in the very cells that usually destroy them."About half of American women experience bladder infections at least once during their lifetime, and up to 10 percent suffer three to five infections per year. Antibiotics used to treat these infections may have little effect against bacteria that are hiding in other cells, says co-researcher Soman Abraham, Ph.D., assistant professor of pathology and of molecular microbiology.E. coli usually lives harmlessly in the intestines, but female anatomy makes it easy for the bacterium to get swept into the urinary tract. Once there, the bugs use sticky, hair-like structures called pili to cling to the walls of the urethra and bladder, without this strong adhesion the bacteria can"t cling and colonize because the environment is constantly flushed with urine.Other Problems with antibiotic treatmentAntibiotics suppress the immune system and increase the likelihood of recurrence of infections. Every woman is also familiar with "yeast infections" that follow antibiotic use, as the "friendly bacteria" are killed off along with the "bad bacteria", leaving the antibiotic insensitive yeast to grow "out of control". Long term or often repeated antibiotic use can lead to major disruptions in normal body microflora, and sometimes to major disruptions in health, especially immune system function.There is Hope !For these reasons antibiotics are not always the best treatment choice. A new product called ClearTract contains D-Mannose can be faster and more effective, especially in dealing with chronic problems, and it doesn"t have the side-effects or other problems associated with antibiotics.E.coli contains tiny projections from the cell wall that have a glycoprotein, called a lectin, that "glues" it to the lining of the urinary tract. That is why urination does not remove the bacteria. D-Mannose readily binds to these lectin and However E.coli are highly attracted to the D-Mannose much more than the lining of the urinary tract. When the proper dose of ClearTract is taken the E.coli bacteria promptly detach from the urinary tract lining and bind to the D-Mannose. Now the freely floating bacteria attached to the D-Mannose is then eliminated upon urination.In the June 1999 edition of Nutrition & Healing, Jonathan V. Wright, M.D cites three patient cases in which D-mannose quickly eliminated recurring episodes of cystitis that had not responded to antibiotics.Unlike antibiotics, D-Mannose is safe, even long term. Which makes it ideal for people who have chronic cases that would be difficult to take antibiotics long term. In addition, D-Mannose has no side-effects. It doesn"t kill friendly bacteria, and it is much cheaper than antibiotics. Also the Ecoli bacteria don"t become resistant to it.What is D-Mannose ?The ingredients are 100% D-Mannose, which is a rare saccharide that is naturally occurring in some plant and food substances and even produced in the body. It has no toxicity and is not a drug, it is a nutritional food substance. It is safe, and all natural. Since it isn"t metabolized it doesn"t interfere with blood sugar regulation, even for diabetics. It creates no disruption or imbalance in normal body microflora, so one wouldn"t be more prone to yeast infections as is often the case after a course of antibiotics. It"s safe even for pregnant women and very small children.
