Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) 50 mg

Cranberries have long been used in North America by the indigenous populations as a source of food and as a medicine. A small, red and very tart berry, it is often made more palatable as a drink by mixing with other juices or adding sugar.

Recommended amounts of Cranberry juice to reduce the frequency of recurrent UTI's vary from 300 ml to up to 8 cups a day, more than most people would prefer to consume.
