Causes and risk factors of UTI
· The main pathogen is Escherichia coli , accounting for 80% of infection cases.
· Environmental changes can cause previously harmless bacteria to become pathogenic , for example :
o High blood sugar (diabetes) → feeds bacteria and fungi
o High or low estrogen levels (pregnancy, menopause) → alter vaginal flora
o Antibiotic overuse kills good bacteria, leading to the proliferation of fungi and harmful bacteria.
o Sexual activity and catheter use increase the risk of cross-infection .
�� Common symptoms
· Burning sensation during urination, frequent urination, urgency but inability to urinate
· Lower abdominal pain, back pain, cloudy urine, unusual odor, or blood in urine.
· Women are five times more likely to be infected than men because the urethra is located close to the anus.
✅ Recommended natural remedies (non-antibiotics )
1. Buchu (布枸叶)
· Antibacterial and anti-adhesion properties → Prevent bacteria from adhering to the bladder wall
· Helps prevent bladder, prostate, and urethral infections .
· It also has a diuretic effect and helps to eliminate bacteria.
2. Cranberry
· Anti-adhesion → helps bacteria slide off and reduces adhesion.
· Inhibit biofilm formation
· We recommend using cranberry capsules to avoid the sugar in the juice.
3. Bearberry leaves ( Uva Ursi )

· Suitable for patients with bladder and kidney infections

o Thyme: 500 mg daily
· Inhibits biofilm and kills E. coli
6. Apple Cider Vinegar
· 2 tablespoons + 500ml water → lowers urine pH
· An acidic environment can inhibit the growth of pathogens.
· It can be added to your daily drinking water ( 2.5 liters recommended ).
7. Natural diuretic
· Helps flush away germs and increases urine flow .
· Recommended foods: asparagus, dandelion leaves, potassium salts (such as electrolyte powder )
️ Immunity Boosting and Prevention Strategies
· Intermittent fasting : Short -term fasting can rapidly boost immunity.
· Low-sugar diet : Avoid feeding bacteria and fungi.
· Avoid antibiotic overuse : reduce antibiotic resistance and gut microbiota imbalance
· Regular urine tests : to measure white blood cell and nitrate levels .
Conclusion: UTIs don't necessarily require antibiotics; natural therapies offer longer-lasting and more effective results.
Hong Kong people lead busy, stressful lives with a preference for sweet foods, making recurrent UTIs quite common. Knowing how to use natural antibacterial plants and adjusting diet and lifestyle are key to true prevention and cure .
Starting tonight, a glass of apple cider vinegar water, a single oregano capsule, and a dish of asparagus will help establish a healthy foundation for your urinary system, preventing recurring inflammation!
