Healthy Herbs to Rid Your Body of a Bladder Infection

June 9, 2009


A urinary tract infection is commonly known as a bladder infection. It causes an urgent need to urinate and leads to pain and burning sensations when you pass urine. It is important to treat the infection immediately as it leads to kidney infections in later stages. The infection is common to women only; and are often caused by a disturbance in the urinary tract often caused by pregnancy, menopause, intercourse, birth control or a weak immune system.

There are a few herbs that are beneficial in improving the functioning of the bladder. Using these effectively prevent the infection from getting worse and help to reduce the bacteria.

If you have a bloody discharge in your urine, then barberry will prove to be extremely useful. Add 20 drops of the herb in the tincture form to 100 ml of water and drink this portion 3 to 4 times a day.

If you experience pain in the bladder then you must boil birch leaves in water and use it to wash your private area. The pain will subside. Do this several times a day.

When you have an infection; often the bacteria stick to the lining of your bladder and spread that way. Drink a glass of cranberry juice to help get rid of the bacteria and reduce the pain in your abdomen and lower back.

Garlic is a herb that is commonly found in most kitchens. Eat 2 to 3 cloves of garlic to get rid of the bacteria that cause the infection. Garlic has healing properties to produce germ fighting cells that get rid of the toxic bacteria.

The root of the dandelion must be boiled with your tea preparation. you can also choose to have it in a capsule form. It helps to prevent water retention and reduces the burning sensation.

Increase the amount of Vitamin C you consume daily. If you are not getting enough through your diet then you must choose to have supplements. In addition to all of this, you must drink 3 liters of water daily to flush out the toxins in your body.
