Native Americans and early New England sailors were among the first to recognize the health value of cranberries. Consumed for the prevention of scurvy, the Vitamin-C rich berries became a key ingredient in numerous folkloric remedies for centuries.
Today, modern science has confirmed the nutritional value and health benefits, concluding that cranberries contain bacteria-blocking compounds that are likely helpful in preventing Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), and may be effective in blocking the oral bacteria responsible for ulcers and gum disease. Current research indicates that approximately 10 ounces of cranberry juice cocktail is needed daily to achieve the bacteria-blocking benefits that ward off UTIs, ulcers and gum disease. You can get these benefits in a variety of fresh and frozen cranberry products.
