What makes Utiva UTI Control different from standard cranberry products?
What makes Utiva UTI Control different from standard cranberry products?
36 mg of PACs measured by DMAC/A2
Not all cranberry PAC measurements are equal. Measurement methods can report different values based on what compounds are measured. DMAC/A2 measures A-type PACs linked to anti-adhesion activity, while c-PAC measures a broader range of PAC compounds and may report higher values. Clinical trials support 36 mg of PACs measured by DMAC/A2 for UTI prevention. Utiva delivers 36 mg of PACs per capsule, measured by DMAC/A2, providing up to 9x more PACs than lower-dose cranberry supplements.
Utiva was ranked #1
in Rutgers University’s anti-adhesion activity test
All Utiva Cranberry PACs batches are sent to Rutgers University to test for Anti Adhesion Activity (AAA) which verifies the ability to stop bacteria from sticking. These tests are conducted by Amy Howell, PhD. Our anti-adhesion scores are always outstanding, with Utiva ranking high compared to other top leading brands that have soluble PAC products on the market.
36 mg of PACs for UTI prevention are supported by a variety of professional associations
CUA (Canadian Urological Association)/ AUA (American Urological Association)
- This was the first time the CUA/AUA mentioned a natural product for recurrent UTI prevention (cranberry).
- “…cranberry supplements standardized to at least 36 mg PACs are more effective in reducing UTI recurrence than those which contain less than 36 mg.”
Family Physician Guidelines
The 2019 Anti-Infective guidelines identified 36 mg of Proanthocyanidins as the active molecule from cranberry which shows evidence for UTI prevention.
Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada
Utiva UTI Control is recognized by the SOGC.
Can Utiva UTI Control and Utiva D-Mannose be taken together?
Although UTI Control and D-Mannose are individually approved by Health Canada for UTI prevention, it is recommended not to combine them in the same dose. Preliminary research shows there is decreased anti-adhesion activity of PACs from cranberries when taken at the same time as D-Mannose.
