Urinary Tract Infection Home Remedy
I recently discovered that water fasting is a urinary tract infection home remedy!
I woke up at about 4am with all the symptoms of a UTI and huge discomfort: Extremely painful urination, lower abdominal cramping, blood in my urine, feeling like I was about to pee my pants even when there was no more than a drop in my bladder etc.
I was so uncomfortable that sleeping more was out of the question, so I sat up watching TV and drinking LOADS of water.
I also did some research (as this was my first UTI) and found that in most cases people take antibiotics for this.
As I am a believer in allowing the body to heal itself, I decided to water fast for a few hours and I didn't eat anything all morning.
By 1pm my symptoms had subsided completely. So by 3pm I made myself a giant jug of smoothie and thought I was healed.
Urinary Tract Infection Cure
Unfortunately, the symptoms returned. So I searched around the web a little more and discovered advice from Dr Douglas Graham saying that one should fast until the symptoms are alleviated and then continue fasting for at least 24 hours after that.
So I began to water fast again, and this time after the symptoms disappeared (this only took a few hours), I continued to fast for a further 24 hours.
It worked like a charm.
The symptoms stayed gone!
So I highly recommend this method, rather than putting a heap of chemicals into your body which will likely lead you to suffering from another illness and having to take even more drugs.
The wonderful thing is that the symptoms of the UTI disappear SO quickly and a further 24 hours of fasting is really no trouble, especially when you have such a compelling reason! Just take it as an excuse for some 'me' time and settle in with some movies and books you've been wanting to get into for a while.
This is a great urinary tract infection home remedy! Not to mention so much better than trying to down liters of yukky tasting unsweetened cranberry juice (which only occasionally has any effect by all reports!).
So give it up for water fasting as a urinary tract infection cure!
