Urinary tract imbalances are an uncomfortable fact of life for many people. Six out of 10 women in the U.S. will have a urinary tract concern, and one in four of those will have a recurrence. Men experience these issues much less often. Under age 50, only 5-8 out of 10,000 men experience an issue each year.  Urinary tract problems are typically treated with antibiotics, but many patients today prefer a more natural treatment option, and doctors are concerned about antibiotic resistance. Patients and medical professionals have noted friendly probiotic bacteria, which have shown potential benefits for maintaining urinary health.
