D-Mannose is essentially sugar that naturally appears in the body but also in certain fruits such as cranberries, apples, oranges, and peaches.

Its main purpose is to prevent Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) from developing further. It can also treat an existing/ active UTI as well.

It is thought that D-Mannose can stop the bacteria that cause UTI's from entering the urinary tract and aids the kidneys in filtering the bad bacteria out.

There are various ways it can be taken, either as a capsule/ pill or it can be mixed into drinks instead. While D-Mannose is relatively safe to take, it shouldn't be drunk in excess as it can alter your blood sugar levels. If a UTI is persistent, seek a medical professional.
