UritraX™ features D-mannose, a simple sugar that occurs naturally in cranberries and pineapple. Research suggests that D-mannose interferes with adhesion of E coli to the bladder wall, thereby supporting a healthy urinary tract.

D-Mannose, to date, the most widely recognized and acceptable natural remedy against recurrent UTIs in both adults and children is cranberry. However, recent studies are identifying D-mannose as the superior component of cranberry, responsible for preventing bacterial adherence to urothelial cells, thus helping to prevent recurrent UTIs. Pathogenic bacterial colonization occurs when FimH adhesin, located on the type 1 fimbria of enteric bacteria, binds to urothelial glycoproteins. D-mannose, however, competes for this binding site, rendering bacterial adhesion impossible. It is important to note that only the D-isomer can bind to FimH adhesin. Although E. coli is traditionally the causative agent of UTIs, other species of bacteria are becoming prevalent in these infections. Therefore, prophylactic remedies must be effective against various organisms. D-mannose has been found to exert anti-adhesive effects on E. coli, P. aeruginosa and Streptococcus sp.
