As such, I have been researching the health benefits of cranberry juice, beyond bladder infections, and have found that cranberry juice benefits a whole host of other issues. It is high in antioxidants and vitamin C, which is why it is so good at fighting off infections including respiratory and middle ear infections. For instance, some studies show that it changes the E. Coli bacteria in ways that prevent it from causing infection.
Cranberries are also heart-wise. The antioxidants may protect the heart by lowering bad cholesterol, relaxing blood vessels, and reducing plaque buildup in the arteries. Seems like a good reason to drink it to me.
Cranberries contain a compound shown to kill or inhibits the growth of cancer cells in the laboratory. It is not known if this can be repeated outside the lab. Drinking cranberry juice, however, will not cure cancer.
We have touched on some of the ways cranberries are good for us. Later we will explore the cranberry from a culinary view.
