UVA URSI
By: Articles by a Naturopathic Doctor (N.D.)
With concerns around bladder and kidney health, Uva Ursi is a natural solution...
Uva ursi has been well studied for its ability to prevent and decrease the severity of urinary tract infections, kidney infections, and kidney stones. It contains a compound called arbutin, which kills bacteria, especially in alkaline urine. Arbutin is also analgesic and studies show its pain relieving effect is equivalent to some other pharmaceutical pain relievers.
Uva ursi can be purchased as a raw herb for tea, encapsulated herb or tincture. Standardized supplements give the consumer the assurance that some active chemicals are present in the formula.
Combination products for urinary tract infections and kidney stones may contain uva ursi. Whole plant preparations, as opposed to formulas of purified, extracted chemical constituents, work best. There are other molecules in uva ursi that protect the active chemicals as they pass through the digestive tract and alkalinize the urine.
Uva ursi may cause a harmless green-brown discolouration of the urine. Do not use uva ursi if you are pregnant or lactating. Do not use uva ursi if you have kidney failure. Uva ursi should not be used for longer than 7-10 days. Children should not use Uva ursi.
