Properties
1. Defensive & Anti-Adhesive Action
-
Cranberry (Proanthocyanidins) and D-Mannose act synergistically to prevent E. coli adhesion to bladder and urethral walls.
-
Facilitate detachment of bacteria already adhering to epithelial cells, promoting elimination through urine.
-
Mechanism: PACs bind fimbriae adhesins of E. coli, while D-Mannose acts as a competitive inhibitor at glycoprotein receptors.
2. Antioxidant Action
-
Berryvin™ (polyphenols, anthocyanins, ellagic acid) + Vitamin C form a potent antioxidant system.
-
Neutralizes free radicals produced during infection and protects mucosal cells from oxidative damage.
-
Reduces inflammation and strengthens mucosal resistance to recurrent infections.
3. Immunomodulating Action
-
Inulin stimulates the alternative complement pathway, increasing white blood cell activity and immune defense against bacteria and viruses.
-
Pido-Zinc® ensures high zinc absorption, exerting immunostimulant and anti-radical actions.
4. Repairing & Reconstructive Action
