2 Unusual uses of Cranberry

When people used to ask me what you do with cranberry, all I knew was make pickle ! After some years, I came to know that cranberry is very good to fight Urinary Tract Infections (UTI). In some countries, you do get cranberry capsules or as tablets, or else drink cranberry juice which is easily available in most stores. Of course, nothing better than eating them in their natural form, as simple pickle. Sadly, it is seasonal. When I lived in the north of India, it was easily available during autumn months. Having moved to the southern part of the country, sadly, I've not seen it in the shops here. Or may be, as we live in the outskirts, miss it when we go shopping !

Cranberry juice has been found to lower blood pressure. A study, found that people who drank low-calorie cranberry juice for two months saw an average drop of three points in blood pressure. It was also found that a group who drank a placebo beverage had no change in their BP numbers. Furthermore, the antioxidants in cranberries have been linked to lower blood pressure in other research too.
