this video is about the top remedies for a uti  updated i had an older video on this topic but i  

wanted to update it with some new information  a uti stands for urinary tract infection  

and this can be in the lower part as in a  bladder infection or the upper part which  

could be more of a kidney infection now the most  common pathogen that’s involved with these utis  

is e coli now normally in our bodies e coli  is not harmful okay it’s neutral it lives in  

our body and it doesn’t create any problem  so what would make this e coli unfriendly  

and the answer to that would be the environment  okay that it lives in so let’s go through the  

different things that can change the environment  for this microbe and there’s other microbes too  

mainly bacteria that can turn more pathogenic  and create this problem number one having high  

glucose so if you’re diabetic you’re at a higher  risk than someone that doesn’t have diabetes  

because all this sugar changes the environment  and it feeds a lot of the pathogens especially  

funguses yeast and candida okay which can  also create a uti so based on that you’d want  

to definitely cut out the sugar if you have  an uti next point is high estrogen okay now  

this can occur when someone’s pregnant or they’re  ovulating there’s a higher chance of getting a uti  

during ovulation and when you’re pregnant because  of this estrogen okay so there’s definitely a  

shift of estrogen that can affect your immune  system and also going the other way too because  

if your estrogen is lower okay that can alter  the um the barrier the like the vaginal flora  

the good bacteria that’s supposed to protect you  and this is why women that are post menopausal  

have a higher risk of getting utis as well so  estrogen too high or too low can be a problem now  

the other thing is antibiotics especially can ally  antibiotics kill off not just the good but the bad  

and then these pathogenic bacteria get pissed  off and then they start to create problems and  

inflammation and infection and also funguses and  candida because antibiotics don’t kill the fungus  

and the yeast so they live they just you just kill  all the bacteria so now we have this overgrowth  

it can create a situation and especially  if you have to take frequent antibiotics  

and you develop this resistance to antibiotics and  then they don’t work anymore and now you have utis  

very very often so it’s not the best long term  solution now intercourse can also be a problem  

with cross contamination and then catheters  can also increase your risk of getting a uti  

so let me just tell you some really good remedies  that you can use for a uti so the first remnant  

is called buchu this is probably one of the best  things you can take for uti it’s stood the test  

of time it’s been around for a very very long  time it’s highly anti-microbial it’s anti-at  

in other words it prevents the bacteria from  attaching it’s been shown to decrease the risk of  

getting infection in the bladder and the prostate  and the urethra and on top of that it’s a natural  

diuretic okay next one is cranberry this one is  also anti-adhesive and it prevents the bacteria  

from accumulating on the inside of the bladder and  the other ducts and it can also inhibit biofilms  

which tend to accumulate in the bladder and the  kidney and the connections then you have uva ursi  

which can act as a natural diuretic and the next  one is juniper which is a great antimicrobial  

for the bladder as well as a kidney and the  last two things which are not herbal remedies  

but they’re highly recommended number one  doing fasting fasting is probably one of the  

most potent things to help your immune system  really fast just stop eating for a while maybe  

a whole day maybe two days and you will probably  see great improvements in your immune system  

and then also like i just mentioned previously  cut out the carbs go on a low sugar diet because  

that’s what feeds these pathogens so  we want to starve them off especially  

if it’s a yeast infection a candida infection or  a fungal infection all right thanks for watching
