Oregano Oil-- 7500 mg softgel (1), grapefruit seed extract--500mg capsule (1), Goldenseal--400mg capsule (1), D-Mannose--1000mg capsule (1), serrapeptase 40,000 spu capsule (1- 3x/day), garlic-- 500mg softgel (1/day).
I did this morning, noon, evening, night, and middle of night, usually with milk to get the pills down, and with or without food.
My medley info was gathered from my mother and from this website. In reading deep into these posts at week three I learned about baking soda and vinegar. So each morning I drank about 20 oz of water with 1-2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar and about 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. It really helped clear things out fast and also creating an anti-bacterial alkaline environment in the bladder-- I think it would be excellent to do this at the first sign of infection. I suspect that if I had done this with my antibiotic it would have beat the infection. I didn't give up coffee or normal meals as some wrote about. This probably would have helped me beat the infection more quickly, but I wasn't ready to resort to that stage yet.
I will bet that 10 days to two weeks of this concentrated effort would take care of a UTI. By the end of the third week I reduced the pill medley to 4x/day, no tingle, then 3x/day... so I stopped. No more infection! I am writing this review a month later, and still no infection. :) Best to you!!
Iodine
Iodine is another great umbrella therapy that has been suppressed. I buy the Lugol's (ingestable) form as 7% or 15% concentration in a bottle which dispenses drops when inverted. For EARLY treatment of UTI, I apply it topically to a 4 x 5 cm patch of skin on my forearm and repeat that twice more, with an hour between applications, drinking plenty of water as well. The iodine passes quickly through the skin and into circulation. Within a very short time there is enough iodine in the bladder to treat the UTI. The beauty of this is that topical iodine therapy doesn't disrupt the gut microbiome, because you're not taking it orally.
Corn Silk
★★★★★
Reportedly, corn silk tea has a smooth effect on kidney, bladder and urinary problems, and can clear up pus, infection, burning or scalding urine. It will also soothe inflammation of the urinary passages due to gravel or kidney stones, and regulate the flow of urine (whether too much or too little), in cases of bladder drip and incontinence—inability of the bladder to hold urine—and urine retention or stoppage of urine. It seems to heal diseased areas of the kidney, bladder and urinary passages and flush out uric acid, toxins and other poisons.
Reported Cases:
J.D. writes: I experienced the most excruciating pain I ever felt in the form of sudden attacks of burning and scalding urine. The burning and scalding came upon me in uncontrollable waves of pain. I noticed a thick white pus dribbling out of me that turned the water a cloudy color. The flaming hot pain lasted nearly an hour. Attacks came without warning, and were especially loathesome mfles away from home. A doctor gave me a sulfa drug. This did nothing for my immediate pain and gave me nausea. Another antibiotic turned my urine red. After endless trips to the doctor, and pain so bad I nearly passed out, I tried corn silk tea. It cleared up immediately, like magic!
Mrs. M.B. writes: Some years back (I am now 83).. there seemed to be something dreadfully wrong with my kidneys. Three doctors, having taken an X-ray which showed the lower half of one kidney completely black, decided there must be an operation, at least exploratory. Deciding not to have the operation, I took my family to the country, bag and baggage, and drank corn silk tea instead of water for a year. Upon my return to the city, one of the doctors called upon me and asked, How are you?' I answered, 'Just fine! And you are going to laugh when I tell you I have been drinking corn silk tea.' He said, Well, that is nothing to laugh at—this is where they get their kidney medicine.' Another X-ray showed an entirely clean kidney. Now I swear by corn silk tea… a proven remedy.
Mrs. M.B. adds: Corn silks can be stored in glass jars; no need to refrigerate. One puts a handful of dried brown silks in a stew pan of water, boils it for 15 minutes to be sure it is sterile, and then drinks. It is as simple as that—no recipe is needed. It works wonders in clearing up kidney trouble
Goldenseal and Echinacea
★★★★★
From the Book: Miracle Medicine Foods, p. 83-95. 1977 – Rex Adams
Mr. H.M. writes: Four weeks ago I developed un-imaginable pain in the urinary tract which was both frightening and embarrassing. After hours of indecision I visited an emergency clinic at a very fine New York hospital, and was prescribed a sulfa drug, and was shoved out the door. Total cost: $45. Four days later the pain was worse, and swelling had spread to the prostate gland and the testicles. I went to my own doctor who gave me the choice of staying on the drug or experimenting with other drugs. I chose the new prescription.... Total cost second visit: $25.
I tore up the prescription on the way home. By chance… my eyes ran across an old copy of (a book of herbal remedies)… including goldenseal, chaparral, lemon grass and Spanish eucalyptus. I purchased the teas and drank more than a quart an hour, rotating the varieties to avoid boredom.
I also used a little honey. Within six hours I could urinate without pain; in the morning all swelling was gone from each area. I continued for three days as a safeguard… If this can help someone in pain, I will be very happy. Total cost of teas: $6—and only a small amount of the packages were used.
D-Mannose
D-Mannose is a type of sugar and is considered safe except possibly in diabetics and people with kidney disease in which case your doctor would need to monitor kidney function or HbA1c in the case of diabetics. My neighbor has been taking it for over two years at the two times per week dosing schedule and she loves it and wonders why none of her doctors over the decades ever suggested it to her instead of the potent antibiotics that can have serious side effects.
D-Mannose is derived from various fruits. Here is a brief article discussing D-Mannose that you may find of interest :
https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/323938
Please be sure and read the "side effects and risks" section in the above article and also read their warning about long term antibiotic use for recurrent UTIs.
It is important to remember that my friend was not drinking this everyday, but rather only twice a week as a preventative.
Here is a link to typical D-Mannose powder products on Amazon UK :

I suggested that she drink two bottles of D-Mannose water each week, spread as evenly apart as possible and that should help prevent most if not all of her monthly UTIs. I suggested drinking one bottle on Sunday morning and one bottle on Wednesday afternoon.
I told her to just take a 500 ml bottle of filtered water and add 1 1/2 teaspoons of D-Mannose powder to each bottle and shake well until dissolved and to drink two of these bottles each week. She started as soon as her D-Mannose package of bulk powder arrived.
It has been over two years since she started this regimen, so I asked her the other day how it was working out for her. She looked at me and smiled and pointed to a bag of D-Mannose powder on her counter and said she hasn't had a UTI since she started drinking it twice a week and I smiled back!
D-Mannose is said to bind to E coli. which is the most common bacteria to cause UTIs at about 80% to 90%, but her doctor had previously told her that her UTIs were caused not just by E coli., but other bacteria on occasion. So perhaps D- Mannose can bind to the others as well?
I just don't understand why doctors don't even consider something like D-Mannose, that has a good safety profile, as a preventative or treatment instead of prescribing potent antibiotics that can cause other health problems. She didn't mention having any problems with taking D-Mannose twice a week.

A doctor made me take strong antibiotics in his office before a urology procedure and, sure enough, afterwards I wound up with the most aggressive UTI I've ever had in my life. I tried all the usual things, d-mannose, ACV, uva ursi, yogurt/probiotics, other herbs, and they had no effect. I started drinking large amounts of colloidal silver, which helped a little, but still no end in sight and the amounts I was taking weren't sustainable anyway. I searched as much as I could online and came across an article about chamomile being effective against drug-resistant bacteria that cause UTI, so I got some chamomile tea bags and started making double strength (two bags) cups of it. It upset my stomach a little because of how concentrated I made it but after the second or third cup there was major improvement. After the second day the UTI was gone. From now on I am always going to make sure I have a box of it in the house as an insurance policy if I feel the slightest burning down there.

Methylene Blue
★★★★★
“Methylene blue has also been shown to have several other health benefits, such as:
Reduces the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) — I consider this one of the most significant uses of methylene blue, as it offers a powerful, gut-friendly alternative to antibiotics for treating UTIs. This is especially beneficial for the elderly, who often have compromised gut health.
Since methylene blue isn't metabolized by your body, it gets excreted by the kidneys into your bladder, where it accumulates and eventually reaches concentrations high enough to act as a strong oxidant, effectively targeting and eliminating pathogens in the bladder.”
Started with 10 drops of 1% liquid (5 mg) in a few ounces of water twice a day (tasted terrible). After the first day, all symptoms were done. Continued this dosage for 4 or 5 days to insure that the infection was gone.
Side effect, my chronic tinnitus was dramatically reduced.
Will continue taking at reduced dosage for the tinnitus and as a preventative for infections indefinitely.

This is what I make :
- A 500 ml bottle of filtered water.
- Add a half teaspoon of sea salt
- Add 6 drops of Grapefruit Seed Extract
- Add one and a half teaspoons of D Mannose powder
After adding all ingredients to the bottle, shake very well and drink.
I repeat this process 3 times per day until symptoms start to noticeably improve and then I reduce to two bottles per day and continue for two days after all symptoms are gone. My family and friends have reported this to be a very good alternative to the potent antibiotics they have used in the past. Symptoms generally start to reduce around 3.5 days.

Borax, Vinegar, Magnesium Chloride

Unable to bear the UTI increasing tremendously I decided to try with RED WINE VINEGAR. I boiled water for a foot bath, poured in a bucket, I put 2 TSP RED WINE VINEGAR, Borax 1/8th of teaspoon and 2 Teaspoon Magnesium chloride (I know it sounds crazy). As the water was too hot, I sat on the bucket exposing my groin area. I took the steam for 5 minutes or so and drank a glass of 1 Teaspoon RED WINE VINEGAR mixed with 1/8th teaspoon Baking soda. Immediately I got the relief and sat peacefully taking the footbath. Before going to bed I put on coconut oil on my vagina to get some relief. And viola...today morning I don't have any UTI issues at all. However today and tomorrow I will drink the solution for complete recovery

Oh my goodness, this WORKS. Woke up pre dawn with a nasty UTI. Constant urgent need to pee. Very painful and uncomfortable urination with blood in my urine. By the morning I was thinking cancel yoga and ‘there goes Christmas' as no drs open, no script for antibiotics. Went to Earth clinic, found this.
I mixed 2-3 tablespoons ACV + 1/2 teaspoon Bicarbonate in a large glass of water. Tastes fine, down the hatch in one go.
20 minutes later, symptoms COMPLETLEY GONE. Miraculous. Went to yoga, no problems. Looking forward to Christmas 🤶
I get this quite regularly, so glad to have this cure as I prefer to avoid antibiotics. Thank you again EC. 💕
