Product Description
Dr. Wong's Essentials Cran-Diazyme® is formulated to be used alone as a bladder and kidney health support supplement for its very strong Cranberry content.*
Cranberry Extract (berries)
Cranberry prevents bacteria from attaching to the renal system in several ways:
- It changes the fimbriae, the tiny arms bad bacteria use to cling onto a surface, so that they don't work.[1,2]
- Further, other chemical properties of cranberries keep the bacteria that don't have the fimbriae from attaching onto surfaces of the urinary tract[3].
Diastase
Diastase was the first enzyme discovered. "The combination of dextranase plus protease attenuated all components of glomerular injury as judged by clinical and pathologic parameters".[7]
While dextranase used in the study is super expensive, we put an affordable variant of that enzyme, Diastase, in the Cran-Diazyme®.
Serrapeptidase
Serrapeptidase, as it is used in this formula, is designed to increase absorption and enable all the ingredients to work more effectively.
