Wonder Juice for Women
January 12, 2008
DRINKING two glasses of cranberry juice a day really can keep the doctor away – but only if you’re a woman.
A study suggests the berries ward off flu, stop teeth from rotting and can also keep away bladder infections and stomach ulcers in female patients.
This is due to a Teflon-like substance in the fruit, which lines the body and prevents infections from taking root.
But the Israeli study, published in the journal Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, could not explain why only women seem to benefit.
