Cranberry juice is most well-known for its associations in the management of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Cranberries contain compounds known as proanthocyanidins(PACs) that have natural antibacterial benefits and may help prevent the bacteria(E.coli) from attaching to the inner surface of the bladder and urinary tract and causing an infection.

A benefit of cranberry juice with plenty of scientific research behind it is that this refreshing drink can have a positive effect on your heart health.
