Uva Ursi
An extremely effective herb to be used in the treatment of urinary tract infections such as cystitis and pyelitis. Uva Ursi generally soothes, tones and strengthens these tissues as well as alkalising the urine.
The product works wonders and helped with my urinary problems which is wonderful since I regularly get urinary tract infections. I recommend making no more than what you can drink straight away as it becomes really bitter after it sits for a while and then has to be diluted with water to become remotely drinkable. Overall very satisfied and greatful for the almost immediate relief. Would recommend a stronger dose of two scoops per cup to achieve results quicker :) !
