Green Tea As A Home Remedy For Bladder Infection

A home remedy for bladder infection includes drinking plenty of water. Eight glasses a day is minimum, more if you're active. Some women stop drinking water because it hurts to urinate. You also need to consider drinking green tea everyday. Green tea flushes out the toxins in your body. Try drinking high quality organic green tea and not the flavored green teas which are loaded with sugar.

The polyphenols in green tea inhibit the growth of both major classes of bacteria: Gram-positive and Gram-negative.

Green tea has been considered a natural cure for bladder infection because of it's ability to inhibit infections plus it contains vitamins, minerals and antioxidants needed for a healthy body.

To combat a bladder infection, you need to take measures to improve your overall immunity. You also need to target those bacteria and see if you can get rid of them as soon as they come back again.

Make sure you're managing stress well because stress weakens your immune system and lowers your defenses against bacteria.

Regular exercise such as kegel exercises can help overcome urinary incontinence.

Eating better all the time should be your ultimate goal in order to prevent future infections. Many women experience bladder irritation because of certain foods or drinks. These include carbonated beverages, spicy foods, citrus fruits, strawberries, tomatoes, and vinegar.

If you experience chronic infection at the time of menstruation, avoid using tampons and use pads instead. And stay clean. Change your pad as often as needed.

Taking a good quality multivitamin daily is a step in the right direction. I also recommend yoga, breathing exercises, and meditation.

Cranberry really does help prevent the occurrence of UTI's. Look for 100% juice kind. Some only has 20 or 30% juice.

So, together with a good multivitamin, cranberry juice, plenty of water and green tea, you should be on your way to a healthy bladder.
