Product Claims of Source Naturals D-Mannose

The statistics for women who will get a urinary tract infection (UTI) at some point in their life is getting higher and higher, and many women will end up with repeated infections.  The issue how to live with and handle those individuals who are getting UTI, to avoid getting the infection is key.  E.Coli, a bacteria that lives in the intestines, is an important component of the intestinal tract.  However, when E.Coli stick themselves onto the urinary tract walls, a UTI results. There are also several other types of bacteria that cause UTIs but E.Coli accounts for 80% of them.UTIs are also referred to as bladder infections and is an infection of the urinary tract. Many people will choose to go the antibiotics route to treat UTIs, but antibiotics do not address the way to prevent a UTI.  Today’s review looks at Source Naturals D-Mannose which promises to support the overall health of the urinary tract, bladder, ureter, renal pelvis, as well as the urethra.

Ingredients

The main ingredient is 500 mg of D-Mannose.

Secondary Ingredients are:

  • Gelatin (capsule)

  • Maltodextrin

  • Dibasic Calcium Phosphate

  • Silica

  • Magnesium Stearate

D-Mannose is a type of sugar which is related to glucose.  It is commonly used to prevent UTIs because bacteria would stick to the sugar rather than the bladder walls, and then leave the body. We note the absence of Lingonberry and Cranberry on the ingredient list as it is very helpful in preventing UTIs.

This product contains no yeast, dairy, egg, gluten, soy, wheat, starch, salt, preservatives or artificial colors or flavors.

Dosage Instructions

Dosage instructions state to take 1 capsule twice daily.  For individuals who are being followed by a doctor, or who are nursing or pregnant, please be sure to talk to your healthcare professional before taking this product.

Cost and Guarantee

We found the following price structure for this product: you can buy 30 capsules for $12.75; 60 capsules for $23.98; 120 capsules for $46.50. Third-party websites had the product for considerably less money:  $7.54 for 30 capsules.

The manufacturer offers a 30-day satisfaction guarantee from the date of purchase, and a 20% restocking fee is applied to all refunds.  They state that only 1 opened package of any product is eligible for return.

Summary Of Our Source Naturals D-Mannose Review

Not all UTI products are alike, and this one certainly a fair to good one.  It is missing Lingonberry and Cranberry which are key ingredients for the prevention of UTIs and the research on this is widespread at this point. Reviews for this product are just okay, but in striking contrast to other products with stronger ingredient lists.  This product may too strongly rely on D-Mannose to do the job alone in preventing UTIs. Also, the satisfaction guarantee provided by Source Naturals is admittedly weak. It’s good that they offer something, but 30 days is not a lot of time, and the manufacturer, we feel, should inspire customers to be confident about their products which won’t happen if they don’t assure customers that they can confidently try their products risk-free.
