Urinary tract infection is a common health problem many people are suffering from today. It is an infection in any part of the urinary system, the kidneys, bladder, or urethra. Urinary tract infections are more common in women. They usually occur in the bladder or urethra, but more serious infections involve the kidney.
Several factors cause this problem in people such as diets, certain medications, and lifestyle changes. However, in this article in line with a publication with “Healthline”, we shall be looking at the effect of vitamin C on urinary tract infections.
According to a study, it has been found that consuming vitamin C regularly could protect against UTIs. This is because vitamin C works by increasing the acidity of urine, killing off the bacteria that cause infection. Apart from preventing urinary tract infections, vitamin C intake can help strengthen your immune system and lower your risk of developing heart disease and other chronic infections.
