Supports Healthy Urinary & Kidney Function
-
Primarily used for urinary tract support for the kidneys and bladder, Uva Ursi Leaf is an unusual herb in that it both astringes (tones and dries) and soothes (cools) the tissues of the urinary system. An important glycoside, arbutin, a main active compound in the leaves, is changed into hydroquinone in the body, which helps clear the urinary tract. Uva Ursi Leaf also has tannins that have a tonifying and astringent effect on mucous membranes. Uva Ursi is so soothing and strengthening to the urinary tract tissues because of another constituent, allantoin, the constituent in Aloe Vera that makes aloe so famous for its skin soothing qualities.

As an astringent herb that tones, cools, and dries tissues, Uva Ursi supports healthy diuretic action that helps the body flush fluids and naturally occurring metabolic toxins and helps reduce temporary bloating and water retention. This can help in both detox and weight loss programs.
-
Uva Ursi helps strengthen and promote healthy tissues in the urinary tract and has an important role in supporting healthy microbial balance in the urinary system. This is why Uva Ursi helps irritated bladders and even helps reduce issues with bedwetting and bladder leakage, and supports the prostate.
-
Uva Ursi helps alkalize the urine, which helps urination be more comfortable. (Do not take Uva Ursi with vitamin C, cranberry juice or citrus fruits and juices, as they increase acid levels in the urine and Uva Ursi does its job best when the urine is more alkaline.) Uva Ursi not only promotes urination, but also helps the bowels move. Uva Ursi has muscle relaxing qualities and soothes, strengthens and tightens hot, irritated muscles, especially in the urinary tract. It also boosts the immune system and helps fluids throughout the body, which also helps soothe the joints.
