ICONFIT URINACON is a reliable choice for those who want to keep their urinary system healthy and ensure overall well-being. The product contains D-mannose, nettle powder and dry cranberry extract.
D-mannose is structurally similar to glucose. It is found naturally in some fruits, including cranberries, apples, oranges, and peaches. Unlike other sugars, it does not significantly affect blood sugar levels. Instead, D-mannose is slowly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and then excreted in the urine. The best-known benefit of D-mannose is its ability to prevent urinary tract infections. It works by preventing E. coli bacteria from attaching to the walls of the urinary tract. D-mannose binds to bacteria, preventing them from sticking to the walls of the bladder and urinary tract, and helps flush them out of the body during urination.
Nettle has been used in traditional medicine for centuries for a variety of purposes, including supporting urinary tract health. Nettle is known for its natural diuretic properties, which can help increase urine production, which in turn helps flush bacteria out of the urinary tract.
Cranberries have been widely studied and are commonly recommended for the prevention and, to a lesser extent, the treatment of urinary tract infections. Proanthocyanidins (PACs) in cranberries can prevent E. Coli bacteria from sticking to the lining of the urinary tract. In addition, cranberries help make urine more acidic, which provides protection against urinary tract infections.
How to recognize urinary tract infections?
Burning sensation when urinating
More frequent need to urinate
Cloudy or bloody urine
Urine with a strong unpleasant smell
Pain in the lower abdomen
Fever, nausea, or chills
The main functions of the urinary tract:
Blood filtration: The urinary tract, especially the kidneys, filter the blood, removing excess waste, toxins, and metabolic waste.
Urine formation: The filtered substances are combined and converted in the kidneys into urine, which consists of water, electrolytes and other dissolved substances.Cloudy or bloody urine
Regulation of water and electrolyte balance: The urinary tract helps maintain the body's water and electrolyte balance by adjusting the composition of urine according to the body's needs.
Regulation of acid-base balance: The urinary tract affects the body's acid-base balance by excreting hydrogen ions and maintaining an optimal pH level.
Regulation of the body's metabolism: Through the urinary tract, excess nitrogen and metabolic wastes, which are formed during protein metabolism, are excreted.
Nutrient storage: Although most of the filtered nutrients are absorbed into the blood, the urinary tract contributes to the storage of some important substances such as glucose and amino acids.
Immune system support: Substances found in the urinary tract, such as immunoglobulins, can help protect the urinary tract organs from infection.
