Answer to Question 1

1

Rationale: Probiotic dietary supplements have not been shown to be an effective treating or preventing UTIs. Cranberry juice has shown some positive results in preventing UTIs, but has not been shown to be helpful in treatment. Yogurt and fermented dairy products are not useful in treating UTIs. Cranberry juice and extract may be helpful in preventing UTIs, but other cranberry products and raisins have not shown sufficient efficacy.
