Cranberry juice vs. cranberry supplement – what’s the difference?
Although several clinical studies have found cranberry juice to be beneficial in preventing UTIs, the amount which must be consumed to be effective is considerable. Cran-Max® Cranberry Supplement is more potent than cranberry juice because it contains all the vital parts of the cranberry – fruit, seeds, skin and juice. A study published in the Canadian Journal of Urology, 2002, showed that Cran-Max® Cranberry Supplement provided more effective and cost-effective treatment of UTI’s when compared to cranberry juice.1 In addition, most juices contain about 27 to 33 per cent cranberry juice, with the remainder consisting of sugar and water. Drinking cranberry juice for bladder health can be expensive and increase one’s calorie count. Cran-Max® does not contain any preservatives, carriers, solvents, sugars, water, flavorings or added color. It takes 34 lbs of cranberries to produce one pound of Cran-Max® Cranberry Supplement.
