- How does cranberry support urinary tract health?
Cranberry contains naturally occurring compounds called proanthocyanidins (PACs) that help support urinary tract health. These compounds help maintain urinary tract cleanliness and support the normal function of the urinary tract as part of a healthy lifestyle. - What are PACs, and why are they important?
PACs, or proanthocyanidins, are naturally occurring polyphenols found in cranberries. They are the key bioactive compounds studied for their role in supporting urinary tract health and are commonly used as a measure of cranberry extract quality. In addition to supporting urinary tract wellness, PACs provide antioxidant support to help protect cells from oxidative stress. - What makes Swanson Cran-Max® unique?
