No. Actually, if it has corn syrup or high fructose corn syrup in it, it can cause diarhea. The ph balance in cranberry juice is good for bladder and kidney infections though. Make sure you get organic, natural without added sugars and such though.\n\n==========================\nPossible Side Effects \n\n\nDrinking cranberry juice in large quantities can cause diarrhea and stomach upset.\n\nNo serious side effects have been associated with the use of moderate amounts of cranberry in supplement form. Some people develop loose stools as a result of treatment with cranberry supplements, however; stop taking them if this occurs.

I've heard cranberry juice can actually help prevent yeast infections, but is actually used to help cure urinary infections.  My doctor told me that eating yogurt can help a yeast infection, but doesn't always cure it.  I guess it's worth a shot to try it though.  Someone also told me once that hydrogen peroxide will kill yeast and help flush it out of your body, but I never tried it as you aren't supposed to doushe while you have an infection as it could make it worse.  I'd try the yogurt but in the end, you may end up spending as much on yogurt as you would a $15 or less tube of cream to cure the problem.

Cranberry Juice is supposed to do wonders and the Chinese swear by Dandilion Root tea. And plain old water does help flush everything out, so drink plenty of it whatever else you try.

Anti-biotics are a roller coaster ride,cranberry juice will just not cut it,you need to go to a healthfood store and get cranberry concentrate capsules,take 2 twice per day for 3 days.On top of this eat lots of garlic.If you do not find relief within 3 days or have developed a high fever,go to your doctor,and take the anti-biotics if neccessary.

Generally Papaya is very good for stomach and treatment of several stomach ailments. As Papaya is a  laxative agent and flush out the stomach it will aggravate diarrhoea instead of controlling. You should take the food that will control diarrhoea and avoid dehydration. Papaya can be taken after a week of curing the present problem. Other foods that can be given are -\n\nFood for Diarrhoea patients - Milk is not good as the lactose contents is the sugar commonly found in cow’s milk based formulas will not control loose motion. For breast feeding babies however it can be continued, since it is their main food. Others can have food as under-\n\nHigh energy foods such as fats, yogurt and cereals are quite well absorbed during diarrhoea. Small, frequent feeds of energy-rich local foods familiar to the child should be given. A little vegetable oil can be added to foods such as millet or rice to increase the energy content.\nFoods high in potassium are important to restore the body's essential stores depleted during diarrhoea. Such foods include lentils, bananas, mangoes, pineapples, pawpaw and citrus fruits.\n\nCertain foods should be avoided during diarrhoea, for example those containing a lot of fibre such as coarse fruits and vegetables, whole grain cereals and spicy foods. \nIt is very important to continue feeding a person with diarrhoea. Give soft, easy-to-digest foods, like khichri, watery dal, idlis, curd, bananas etc.\n\nYou should also give plenty of other fluids, like lemonade], rice kanji, lassi, coconut water, weak tea etc. If the baby is being breast-fed, continue to give her mother's milk.\n\nGive an extra meal a day, after the diarrhoea stops, to help the body get strong again-.

My aunt has had diarrhea for years but none of us knew.  When we found out, my wife told her about a mangosteen juice health drink that we use.  My aunt started taking 2 ounces a day and within 1 month she was totally regular.  She'd tried everything before that so it is amazing what the juice did.  Here is more info if she's interested in reading more: http://www.kimandjeffmacmillan.natureswellnesssecret.com/\nAlso, this website has many testimonials for various conditions including IBS: http://205.234.239.246/index.htm\nTell your friend good luck...

It has been said that cranberry juice can help prevent Urinary Tract Infections.  There have been no formal scientific studies done that I am aware of to prove that fact.  However, in my experience, it has not worked for me, but I know people that swear by it.  By the way, if it does work, I am sure it can also work for males.

I do know of a product that people are finding real results for Crohns with.  It is Himilayan Goji Juice..the only functional juice on the market with medical validation.  There are 34 scientifically proven benefits as well as 72 clinical studies published at Pubmed.org.  This was discovered by Dr. Earl Mindell, Pharmacist, Nutritionist and Master Herbalist, author of the Vitamin Bible.  Please check out the sites for more information.

First of all, your symptoms sound much more severe than a those associated with UTI (urinary tract infection).  Go see a doctor.  In the future, these things can help prevent UTIs: urinating after intercourse and drinking a little cranberry juice every other day or so.  Both things help flush the infectious bacteria out of your system.  Good luck.

I think that you should just drink cranberry juice. That way you know it's going through you urinary tract.

This question has probably been answered 500 times in the Alternative Medicine category. Read my lips: YOUR SYSTEM IS SELF-CLEANING. Despite what you may have seen on late-night television, your colon does NOT need flushing; no toxins are lingering there. Using a product to "clean out" your system can do no good and may do serious harm. Eating fruits, veggies and bran cereals (and avoiding red meats) will keep the contents of  your digestive system moving briskly, and that's all you need.

drink cranberry juice daily.  have the doc run a culture on your urine to make sure the bacteria is sensitive to the med.  make sure you are cleaning correctly after you use the bathroom and have sex.

Since you have diabetes, I would suggest cranberry capsules, which have virtually all the sugar processed out of the cranberry but leave the good properties.  Drink a lot of water to help flush out your kidneys.  Chamommile tea seems to help as well, as does green tea.  Since they are light diuretics, they can get your kidneys working a little overtime to flush out the infection a little quicker.  Something I've found useful as well is to take an Airborne tablet every day while you're trying to get rid of the infection to help boost your body's immune system (I plop on in a cup of hot chamommile tea).  Be careful when bathing as well to use a very gentle soap, one without glycerine as glycerine can irritate the sensitive tissues down there (you don't want a UTI in addition to the kidney infection).
