Ten ways cranberries can improve your health - part two

This post concludes the report on ten benefits of ingesting cranberries:

6) Cranberry juice helps prevent gum disease by killing bacteria that promotes dental plaque.

7) Cranberry juice helps prevent Helicobacter pylori from attaching to the gastric wall. H. pylori is the cause of nearly all gastric ulcers and also contributes to food allergies.

8) As many women know, cranberry juice helps clear up urinary tract infections. But a New England Journal of Medicine study shows that cranberry juice can actually prevent the infection in the first place. It stops E. coli from attaching to the bladder wall.

9) Cranberries reduce risk of kidney stone formation.

10) Cranberries relieve asthma by dilating the bronchial tubes.

My tip - eat whole cranberries, rather than just juice.

To your abundant health,
