  • A super food that offers a lot more than it lets
    on. The plant is actually a dwarf, creeping
    shrub, or vine, which runs up to 10 to 20 cm in
    height and bears small, evergreen leaves. The
    berry itself is tiny and very acidic in taste
    with a pH ranging from 2.3 to 2.5. Cranberries
    are loaded with vitamin C and fiber, rich in
    phyto-nutrients which are essential for all-round
    wellness, and also contain various chemical
    substances that may offer protection from tooth
    cavities, urinary tract infection, and

Prevents UTIs
  • Cranberry is perhaps best known for its role in
    preventing UTIs. The high level of
    proanthocyanidins in cranberries helps lower the
    adhesion of certain bacteria to the urinary-tract
    walls, in turn fighting off infections. According
    to a study published in the American Journal of
    Obstetrics and Gynecology, cranberry helps
    prevent UTIs. However, cranberry juice is far
    less effective since it takes an extremely large
    concentration of cranberry to prevent bacterial
    adhesion.

    with weight loss. Since it is loaded with fiber,
    it also helps one stay full for longer, says
    Delhi-based Nutritionist Anshul Jaibharat.
