How Healthy Is Your Urinary Tract? Take This Survey and Win Old Orchard Products (Winner Announced!)

Well guys, it’s been a while since my last post. I was admitted to the hospital three weeks ago, but I’m still alive, people! I’m kicking like a badass ninja.

Anyway, I’m in a spectacular mood today, and I’ve been meaning to do a giveaway again for some time now, so I thought today would be the perfect day for it. Yey!

This will be my pre-birthday giveaway.

I was grateful to be part of the Old Orchard Love Your Kidneys Campaign bloggers’ event recently because my family is insanely attached to drinking cranberry juice every day, seriously, every single day.

My children are picky and sensitive when it comes to food and drinks, but they don’t mind the sour taste of cranberry juice. In fact, they love it.

However, I was advised to limit cranberry juice intake to just two glasses a day.

I believe cranberry can really help with UTIs in some cases.

Back then, I had UTIs many times in my life and would often test positive for white blood cells in my urinalysis results. I stopped drinking cranberry juice for a while after I recovered, but I started drinking it again recently.

I also recommended it to a fellow blogger when I found out about her kidney problems. After drinking it, the burning sensation went away immediately, and some kidney stones were passed after four days. She felt much better, but of course, she still went to see her doctor.

Not only does cranberry juice help support the treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections through its antibacterial properties, but it is also believed to help reduce the risk of forming painful kidney stones.

Cranberry juice is truly packed with health-promoting nutrients.

What I love about Old Orchard products is that each eight-ounce serving of 100% Old Orchard Cranberry Juice counts as two servings of fruit. The American Cancer Society recommends eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day, and Old Orchard 100% juices can help you meet your “five-a-day” goal.

Cranberries also contain active compounds that may help prevent bacteria, particularly E. coli, from adhering to the bladder wall.

The active ingredients are proanthocyanidins and hippuric acid.

With Old Orchard Cranberry Juice as part of your daily balanced diet, you get to take care of your kidneys while enjoying the sweet, tangy flavor of cranberries.

I’m truly excited to share these wonderful and healthy products from Old Orchard with you guys, so follow me and join my contest now!

This contest has now ended. :)

Congratulations to Matt Suzara!
