Urinary Bladder Infection:
The Common Risk Factors

Risk Factors in Females

• Being Female
  The female urethra is shorter than the male's, allowing bacteria quick access to the bladder and this probably accounts for why women are more likely to develop urinary tract infection. In addition, a woman's urethral opening is near sources of bacteria from the anus and vagina.

• Being Pregnant
  Pregnant women, especially in the late stages of pregnancy, seem no more prone to an infection than other women; however, about 5 to 7 percent of pregnant women develop a urinary infection, probably due to previous infections before pregnancy, high sexual activity and diabetes, and also due to hormonal changes and shifts in the position of the urinary tract during pregnancy (the enlarged uterus continuously presses on the bladder).

  PLEASE NOTE: Women who experience an untreated urinary tract infection during their third trimester of pregnancy are at greater risk of delivering a child who suffers from mental retardation or developmental delay.

• Poor Hygiene
  Genitals must be kept dry and clean! Less than careful hygiene, especially after developing loose stools or diarrhea, is one of the most frequent causes of repeated urinary tract infections.

  It is very easy to contaminate one's fingers when wiping oneself with toilet paper, and if those contaminated fingers come anywhere close to the opening of the urethra, there is a high likelihood of infection in predisposed individuals.

  Only white unscented toilet paper should be used as many women react to the dyes and chemicals in the other toilet papers.

  Unbleached toilet paper would be even better to reduce

  • any possible chlorine exposure and
  • the environmental contamination that comes from the bleaching process.

• Sexual Position
  Some women find that they are liable to develop an infection if, during sexual intercourse, their partner enters their vagina 'from behind'. This is simply because in this position it is more likely that bacteria from around the anus may be pushed forward towards the urethra.

• Diaphragm Use
  Some women who use a diaphram are likely to develop a urinary tract infection; also women whose partners use a condom with spermicidal foam also tend to have growth of E. coli bacteria in the vagina, which may enter the urethra.

• Frequent Intercourse
  In some women, high sexual activity may traumatize the urethra, disrupting its lining and making it more susceptible to infection. This is frequently called 'honeymoon cystitis'.

• Failure to Completely Empty the Bladder
  This failure is associated with such conditions, mainly obstructions, as:
  • kidney stones
  • tumor
  • urethral strictures, or
  • neurological diseases.

• Catheters, Tubes, or Stents
  An obstruction in the urinary tract can be due to:
  • urinary catheters (a small tube inserted into the bladder through the urethra to drain urine) - a usual cause of urinary tract infection due to bacteria on the catheter, especially in the elderly or those who lose bladder control, or are unconscious, or are critically ill (due to nervous system disorder)
  • nephrostomy tubes (a tube inserted into the kidney to drain urine to the abdominal surface), or
  • ureteric stents (a wire tube fitted in the urethra to keep the passage open) all tend to increase the likelihood of infection.

• Diabetes
  Diabetics are at a higher risk of a urinary tract infection due to the unfavourable metabolic changes, such as elevated blood sugar levels, which suppress their immune system.

• Postmenopausal
  In postmenopausal women usually vaginal tissues start to break down due to a decrease in estrogen levels; therefore, in general, the rate of urinary tract infections gradually increases with age.

• The Elderly
  If you are an older adult you are at high risk for developing bladder infection (cystitis), with the incidence being as high as 33 out of 100 people.

  What may place the elderly at increased risk for developing bladder infection, is

  • lack of adequate fluids
  • bowel incontinence
  • decreased mobility or immobility, or
  • placement in a nursing home (a stress factor).

• Abnormal Structure of the Bladder
  This can be something that you are born with or that develops later in life.

• Vesico-Ureteric Reflux
  This is a congenital abnormality of the urinary tract that some children are born with, in which urine flows back into the ureters or kidney during urination.

• Childhood Urinary Tract Infections
  A history of urinary tract infections or bladder infections in childhodd also poses a risk for recurrences in adult life.

• Suppressed Immune System
  Urinary tract infections occur when the immune stysm is supressed or compromised due to chronic illness, such a diabetes, AIDS, and cancer.

• Blood Type
  Women with certain blood types attract bacteria which attach to cells that line the urinary tract, causing recurrent urinary tract infections.

Risk Factors in Males

• Poor Hygiene
  Genitals must be kept dry and clean! Less than careful hygiene, is one of the most frequent causes of repeated urinary tract infections.

• Anal Intercouse - cystitis is more common in men who practice anal sex.

• The Elderly
  If you are an older adult you are at high risk for developing bladder infection (cystitis), with the incidence being as high as 33 out of 100 people.

  What may place the elderly at increased risk for developing bladder infection, is

  • lack of adequate fluids
  • bowel incontinence
  • decreased mobility or immobility, or
  • placement in a nursing home (a stress factor).

• Failure to Completely Empty the Bladder
  This is a common problem especially among the elderly men who are at increased risk for developing urinary tract infections due to incomplete emptying of the bladder.

  This failure is associated with such conditions, mainly obstructions, as:

  • kidney stones
  • tumor
  • urethral strictures (partial blockages of the urethra)
  • enlarged prostate - benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
  • prostatitis, especially chronic prostate infection, or neurological diseases.

• Catheters, Tubes, or Stents
  An obstruction in the urinary tract can be due to:
  • urinary catheters (a small tube inserted into the bladder through the urethra to drain urine) - a usual cause of urinary tract infection due to bacteria on the catheter, especially in the elderly or those who lose bladder control, or are unconscious, or are critically ill (due to nervous system disorder)
  • nephrostomy tubes (a tube inserted into the kidney to drain urine to the abdominal surface), or
  • ureteric stents (a wire tube fitted in the urethra to keep the passage open) all tend to increase the likelihood of infection.

  PLEASE NOTE: Catheterization in males is more difficult and uncomfortable than in females because of the longer urethra.

• Diabetes
  Diabetics are at a higher risk of a urinary tract infection due to the unfavourable metabolic changes, such as elevated blood sugar levels, which suppress their immune system.

• Abnormal Structure of the Bladder
  This can be something that you are born with or that develops later in life.

• 'Vesico-Ureteric Reflux'
  This is a congenital abnormality of the urinary tract that some children are born with, in which urine flows back into the ureters or kidney during urination.

• Childhood Urinary Tract Infections
  A history of urinary tract infections or bladder infections in childhodd also poses a risk for recurrences in adult life.

• Suppressed Immune System
  Urinary tract infections occur when the immune stysm is supressed or compromised due to chronic illness, such a diabetes, AIDS, and cancer.

• Blood Type
  Men with certain blood types attract bacteria which attach to cells that line the urinary tract, causing recurrent urinary tract infections.

E. Coli Bacterial Infections

The urinary tract reacts to a bacterial infection in much the same way that the upper respiratory system reacts to a cold virus. The tissues become inflamed, irritated, and swollen. Just as it is hard to breathe through swollen and inflamed nasal passages, swollen and inflamed urinary ducts can partially obstruct normal flow, making it painful and difficult to pass urine.

Built-In Safeguards
Ordinarily, the urinary system is hostile territory for bacteria, viruses, or any other microorganisms.

Bugs that do make their way into a healthy urinary tract are likely to find an inhospitable acidic environment (pH <5.5).

Bugs are also subject to attack by the body's immune defenses. (Adult men have the added protection of a specific bacterial growth inhibitor squirted directly into the urinary system by their prostate gland.)

Even if microorganisms manage to overcome these considerable obstacles, they would typically be flushed out with the normal flow of urine. So effective are these natural antibacterial defenses that in a study in which bacteria were instilled directly into the bladders of guinea pigs, simple urination expelled 99.9 percent of the bugs.

Despite all these built-in safeguards; each year millions of people, overwhelmingly women, still develop bladder infections.

Urethritis
Most bladder infections begin when bacteria originating in the bowels travel to and grow in the urethra. Infections limited to the urethra are known as "urethritis."

Cystitis
When bacteria travel upstream to the bladder, the infection is called "cystitis."

Nephritis
Infections that reach the kidneys are known as "nephritis" or "pyelonephritis."

The E. coli that cause most bladder infections are among the most common friendly bacteria in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, where they aid digestion, produce a few vitamins, and in general, behave themselves without bothering us.

However, when E. coli and other bugs exit the lower GI tract, they may gain entry to the urinary tract via the urethra, where they may attach to the internal lining of the bladder, multiply, and spread.

Non-E. Coli Bladder Infections

Although most bladder infections are caused by E. coli, about 10 percent are caused by other strains of bacteria such as:

• Chlamydia,
• Mycoplasma,
• Neisseria gonorrhea,
• Proteus,
• Staphylococcus ("Staph"), and others.

Unlike E. coli, these bugs tend to be transmitted via sexual contact and rarely cause the more serious bladder and kidney infections.

Uribiotic Formula: A Broad-Spectrum Herbal Antibiotic

Over the years, at Full of Health, we have learned that urinary tract and/or prostate infections can be addressed naturally. With the help of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory herbs, nutrients and phytonutrients, it is possible to get through both acute and chronic infections by:

• disinfecting the urinary tract (an antimicrobial action)
• inhibiting and preventing inflammation
• enhancing the growth of some forms of beneficial bacteria within the body such as Bifidobacteria bifidus and Lactobacillus acidophilus
• destroying some forms of detrimental fungi such as Candida albicans and Candida krusei.

By preventing bacterial cell division and breaking down the walls and cytoplasm of bacteria (in a similar fashion to some types of pharmaceutical antibiotics), Uribiotic Formula helps to inhibit the growth (or kill) many types of detrimental pathogenic bacteria including:

• Actinomyces naeslundii
• Bacillus anthracis (on the basis of its known ability to kill other species of Bacillus)
• Bacillus alvert
• Bacillus cereus
• Bacillus subtilis
• Brucella abortus
• Campylobacter jejuni
• Chlamydia pneumoniae
• Chlamydia trachomatis
• Clostridium species ( botulinum, tetani)
• Cornybacterium diphtheriae
• Enterococcus species (faecalis)
• Eschericia coli (E. coli)
• Helicobacter pylori
• Haemophilus influenzae
• Klebsiella pneumoniae
• Legionella pneumoniae
• Listeria monocytogenes
• Moraxella catarrhalis
• Mycobacterium smegmatis
• Mycobacterium tuberculosis
• Neisseria gonorrhoeae
• Neisseria memingitidis
• Pasteurella septica
• Pneumocystis carinii
• Propionibacterium acnes
• Proteus mirabilis
• Proteus vulgaris
• Pseudomonas aeruginosa*
• Pseudomonas cepacia
• Salmonella enteridis
• Salmonella enteritidis
• Salmonella choleraesuis
• Salmonella paratyphi A
• Salmonella typhimurium
• Serratia marcescens
• Shigella dysenteriae
• Shigella flexneri
• Shigella sonnei
• Staphylococcus aureus (responsible for "Golden Staph")**
• Streptococcus faecalis
• Streptococcus mutans (alpha-hemolytic Streptococcus)
• Streptococcus pneumoniae (alpha-hemolytic Streptococcus)
• Streptococcus pyogenes (beta-hemolytic Streptococcus), also known as Group A Streptococcus (GAS)
• Streptococcus sanguis (alpha-hemolytic Streptococcus)
• Streptococcus viridans (alpha-hemolytic Streptococcus)
• Streptomyces species
• Treponema pallidum
• Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus (VRE)

* PLEASE NOTE: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common bacterium found in soil, water, skin flora and most man-made environments. An opportunistic pathogen of immunocompromised individuals vulnerable to infections, it typically infects the pulmonary tract, urinary tract, burns, wounds, and also causes other blood infections.

P. aeruginosa is the third leading cause of hospital-acquired urinary tract infections, accounting for approximately 12 percent of all infections of this type. They are usually related to urinary tract catheterization, instrumentation or surgery.

It is a common cause of post-operative infection in radial keratotomy (RK) eye surgery patients and of "hot-tub rash" (dermatitis), caused by lack of proper periodic attention to water quality.

P. aeruginosa appears to be among the most adherent of common urinary pathogens to the bladder uroepithelium. An infection can occur via an ascending or descending route.

P. aeruginosa can also invade the bloodstream from the urinary tract. This route is the source of approximately 40 percent of P. aeruginosa infections.

P. aeruginosa can cause chronic opportunistic infections. These kinds of infections are a serious problem for medical care. Many patients, immunocompromised and the elderly in particular, often cannot be treated effectively with traditional antibiotic therapy.

As a highly relevant opportunistic pathogen, P. aeruginosa has low antibiotic susceptibility. It is naturally resistant to a large range of antibiotics and may demonstrate additional resistance after unsuccessful treatment.

Therefore, choosing an antibiotic should be guided according to laboratory sensitivities, rather than empirically. However, if antibiotics are started empirically - with some exceptions, given by injection only - then cultures should be obtained and, after having the culture results available, the choice of an antibiotic used should be carefully reviewed.

April 17, 2009: Thanks, Andrew, for your advice and support with my Pseudomonas [aeruginosa] bladder infection with your amazing product Uribiotic which stopped the infection and kept it away. I've suffered from UTIs for 18 years since my spinal cord injury and now I'm infection free. JASON C. Great Britain

** PLEASE NOTE: In case of Staphylococcus aureus infections, Uribiotic Formula can be a part of a combined antibiotic therapy as it may enhance the effectiveness of pharmaceutical antibiotics for the UTI treatment.

Uribiotic Formula: An Immune Booster

An immune-boosting Uribiotic Formula helps to increase the natural safeguards - bodily defense systems that protect the urinary tract against pathogenic, infection-causing bacteria, such as:

• the flow of urine which functions as an antiseptic, helping to wash potentially harmful bacteria out of the body during normal urination. (Urine is normally sterile, that is, free of bacteria, viruses, and fungi!)
• the ureters (muscular ducts that propel urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder) and the bladder
• the immune defenses and antibacterial substances in the mucous lining of the bladder
• the bladder lining cells that, literally, sacrifice themselves and self-destruct to fight off detrimental bacteria (a process called apoptosis). In so doing, they fall away from the lining, carrying the bacteria with them. This process, suggested by some interesting research, eliminates about 90% of the E. coli
• the vagina which is colonized - in normal fertile women - by lactobacilli, beneficial micro-organisms that maintain a highly acidic environment (low pH). Lactobacilli also produce hydrogen peroxide, which helps eliminate bacteria and reduces the ability of E. coli to adhere to vaginal cells
• the so-called human beta-defensin-1 (HBD-1) which fights E. coli within the female urinary and reproductive tracts -.a possible natural antibiotic identified by some researchers
• the antibacterial actions of some secretions of the prostate gland probably for why men are less likely than women to develop urinary tract infection.

Cautions and Contraindications

Sexual System:
Uribiotic Formula should not be consumed during pregnancy as it can cause contractions of the uterus due to presence of Goldenseal, Vinpocetine and hydroquinone (via arbutin present in Uva Ursi/Bearberry).

Cardiovascular System:
Uribiotic Formula should be consumed with caution by patients with severe hypertension (high blood pressure) due to the presence of Nettle root as it may further raise blood pressure in some people. However, Olive Leaf Extract, Rutin and Siberian Ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) present in the Uribiotic Formula may actually help lower blood pressure in hypertension patients.

Pharmaceutical Drugs:
Uribiotic Formula should be consumed with caution by patients on high dose of warfarin (blood thinner) due to the presence of garlic which may potentiate the anticoagulant effects of warfarin. (Reference: Fugh-Berman, A. Herb-drug interactions. Lancet. 355(9198):134-138, 2000).

PLEASE NOTE: When acute nephritis (kidney infection) is present - accompanied by high fever along with sudden retention of urine (a painful urge to pass urine but the inability to do so) - have your condition assessed immediately by your physician.

Do Not Stop!

Although symptoms-free, please do NOT stop taking the Uribiotic Formula and continue to use it until the botle is empty (up to 10 days).

If you are prone to repeated (chronic) urinary tract and/or prostate infections, for the first few months, keep an extra bottle of the Uribiotic Formula on hand, and use it immediately at the first signs of infection for the minimum of three (3) consecutive days.

In time, however, you will notice that the frequency of your urinary tract and/or prostate infections begins to seize, making the further use of the Uribiotic Formula - with some possible exceptions - unnecessary or occasional only.

Simple and Astonishingly Effective

Our proprietary Uribiotic Formula is so simple and astonishingly effective that it continues to amaze even the most skeptical people.

For this reason, we have decided to go worldwide and share our experience with the public on the Internet to help people around the world to remedy bladder, prostate or even kidney infection.

So far, we have introduced our proprietary Uribiotic Formula to our clients and customers in 27 countries: the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, South Africa, New Zealand, Germany, Belgium, Mexico, Italy, Singapore, France, Russia, Croatia, Poland, Portugal, Denmark, United Arab Emirates, Hong Kong, St. Lucia (West Indies), Norway, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Slovenia, Greece, Qatar, Jordan and Israel.

With no doubt this superb supplement can be of great benefit to you. You have nothing to lose - and lots to gain. And if necessary, it can be a part of a combined antibiotic therapy as Uribiotic Formula may even enhance the effectiveness of standard pharmaceutical antibiotics for the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTIs), especially in case of Staphylococcus aureus infections.

Therapeutic and Preventive Intake: Directions

With possible variations from person to person, the suggested intake of the Uribiotic Formula - depending on the diagnosis, degree of UTI, sex, age and other existing health conditions - can be described as follows: I. Acute UTI: In case of first signs of discomfort (slight burning sensation when urinating, frequent urination and/or inability to empty bladder completely) you need to take: 3 capsules 3 times daily; therefore, for full benefits, at least 1 bottle of the Uribiotic Formula is needed (an initial 10-day therapeutic intake). In case persistent signs of UTI (painful burning sensation when urinating, frequent urination at night and/or inability to empty bladder completely) you need to take: 3 capsules 3 times daily; therefore, for full benefits, 2 bottles of the Uribiotic Formula are needed (an extended 20-day therapeutic and prophylactic intake). II. Chronic/Repeated UTI: In case of recurrent, repeated UTIs (all the above symptoms along with the need and dependence on antibiotics) it is necessary to take: 3 capsules 3 times daily; therefore, for full benefits, 3 bottles of the Uribiotic Formula are needed (an intensive 30-day therapeutic and prophylactic intake) DIRECTIONS: Take the capsules throughout the day in between meals (on an empty stomach), preferably before 6 pm, each time with ½ glass of purified lukewarm water. PLEASE NOTE: After all symptoms have disappeared, in order to restore the urinary tract’s normal pH and, thus, prevent recurring UTIs, taking one (1) capsule of the Uribiotic Formula three (3) times daily for at least ten (10) consecutive days is highly recommended. ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATION: In order to fully exert the therapeutic, protective and preventive (prophylactic) effects of the Uribiotic Formula, it might be taken along with probiotics, especially Probiotic LGG Plus. CAUTIONS: Uribiotic Formula should not be used by pregnant women. Also patients with severe hypertension (high blood pressure) should take it with caution. However, Olive Leaf Extract, Rutin and Siberian Ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) present in the Uribiotic Formula may actually help lower blood pressure in hypertension patients). It should also be taken with caution by patients on high dose of warfarin (blood thinner) due to the presence of garlic which may potentiate the anticoagulant effects of warfarin. (Reference: Fugh-Berman, A. Herb-drug interactions. Lancet. 355(9198):134-138, 2000). PLEASE NOTE: When acute nephritis (kidney infection) is present - accompanied by high fever along with sudden retention of urine (a painful urge to pass urine but the inability to do so) - have your condition assessed immediately by your physician. ATTENTION: Male Adults with BPH: Although we have found the Uribiotic Formula effective in both women and men, the latter - besides bladder infections - quite offten suffer from undiagnosed prostate infection (prostatitis) and/or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a non-cancerous swelling of the prostate gland. If this is a case, for full benefits we recommend taking the Uribiotic Formula along with an exceptional supplement: European DP Extract.

Bladder Infections in Paraplegia (SCI)

Neurological conditions like paraplegia, a spinal cord injury, also called spinal cord impairment (SCI), usually result in a neurogenic bladder - an unstable or atonic bladder (with no muscle tone).

People with spinal cord injuries have lost, partial or complete, control over their bladder and sphincter due to the compromised nerve receptors that are responsible for:

• contracting and relaxing the muscles of the bladder and the sphincter, and
• registering feelings of pressure or release.

Due to this condition, most paraplegics are exposed to the regular use of catheters and drugs. (The more traditional cap and bag, with continual drainage, is falling from favor even though it is a safer system).

However, catheters often increase the risk of the urinary tract injuries and repeated bladder infections - a common problem in people with spinal cord impairment.

Exposed to repeated or long-term courses of antibiotics, in time, they also develop resistance to drugs what makes maintaining healthy urinary tract for them even more difficult.

Contrary to a popular belief and common medical practice, people with spinal cord injuries or spinal cord impairment do NOT have to:

• suffer from chronic bladder-kidney infections and
• be exposed to vicious antibiotics.

It is our clinical experience that paraplegics, expecially those who use catheters, can successfully remedy, and most importantly, prevent bladder-kidney infections with the help of our proprietary UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula.

Therefore, you, or someone you know or hold dear, who suffers from spinal cord injury, should give this superb herbal blend serious consideration.

Our Clients with SCI Write to Us: Testimonials

December 14, 2007: As a paraplegic for almost 14 years, I was almost constantly on antibiotics due to chronic bladder infection. However, being afraid of possible side effects, for many years I was reluctant to consider any natural alternatives. I was afraid of getting diarrhea or constipation. These are the worst - a real disaster! But after successful experience with D-Mannose, I started looking for other natural means to solve my problem. And I was pleasantly surprised by lack of any adverse reactions to URIBIOTIC, which I introduced to my system very cautiously. Two weeks later, my urine culture showed NO E. coli. Burning went away in a few days. I'm pleased to report such great results. Barret D. Minnesota

April 17, 2009: Thanks, Andrew, for your advice and support with my Pseudomonas [aeruginosa] bladder infection with your amazing product Uribiotic which stopped the infection and kept it away. I've suffered from UTIs for 18 years since my spinal cord injury and now I'm infection free. JASON C. Great Britain

If Your Infection Persists

On rare occasions the UTI Uribiotic Formula alone does not seem to be enough, especially when the infection has spread into the entire urinary tract, the following remedies should be be considered:

• D-Mannose Powder PLUS
• Pure Essential Oil of Wild Oregano
• Probiotic LGG Plus.
