Cranberry juice can be an effective treatment option, but SimmaChiang says it&39;s not the beallandendall solution. The active ingredient that&39;s supposed to prevent adherence of the organism to the bladder wall (read: kill the UTI) isn&39;t strong enough, she says. Plus, cranberry juice tends to be high in added sugars to balance out the tartness. This meanspeople with diabetes or certain gastrointestinal and inflammatory issues usually shouldn&39;t take it. Unsweetened cranberry pills are another option, says Trubow.
