Groundbreaking D-mannose for relieving UTI in Children


In growing kids, it is important to discern the difference between the UTI’s symptom of urgency of urination and the habitual bed-wetting issue. Children with UTI experience a burning sensation while urinating or may state a feeling of discomfort in the pubic bone area. D-mannose can be a right kind of alternative to conventional antibiotics in adults as well as kids. D-mannose is completely natural and safe for use in UTI patients of any age. Patients can rule out the chance of setting in of side effects like resistant bacterial strains or GI problems when they are trying to relive the symptoms of UTI with D-mannose formulations. Also, as the taste of D-mannose is just like sugar, this means that kids wouldn’t show any signs of unacceptability while consuming this product. Conventional antibiotics can take care of UTI for 2-3 days without any side effects while majority of the medical practitioners recommend the intake of anti-bacterial formulation for 10 to 14 days so that there are no leftovers or strains of bacteria left in the body of the patient. Kids with a chronic history of UTI or Type I diabetes are the ones who are recommended a long-term intake of conventional medications. The mannose sugar present in this natural substitute is different from the sucrose sugar that we find in sugar cubes/crystals and therefore diabetic kids can expect zero fluctuations in the blood glucose level after the intake of D-mannose formulations. In fact D-mannose can satisfy the urge of having something sweet without causing any harm to the diabetics. D-mannose tablets or powder can be readily mixed in the milk shakes and juices for kids. As it tastes like sugar, they won't be able to make out much of a difference. Researches performed on the effectualness of D-mannose against E.coli have rated it as a potent and safer alternative to conventional antibiotics. Needless to say, there is difference in dosages when D-mannose is prescribed for kids instead of adults. Kids who are inflicted with UTI are supposed to be given 1/2 to 1 teaspoonful of D-mannose at every 3 hours interval. Patients can opt for D-mannose even if they have been following antibiotics for long time. Nevertheless, D-mannose is not supposed to be taken in conjunction with conventional antibiotics. It is always recommendable to get the culture tests done for kids before you start administering D-mannose to them so that you can keep a track of the product’s effectualness. In most of the cases, a notable difference in the symptoms and bacterial count can be witnessed within 2 weeks time. A monthly or bi-monthly visit to nearby urologist's office would suffice the cause of keeping an eye on the D-mannose's progress. Also, D-mannose is a more affordable option than conventional antibiotics. For example, a 50g container of D-mannose powder would cost you £17.50. To conclude, D-mannose is a natural formulation that can be opted for at any age and at any stage of UTI.

  2. I gave my 11 year old (which I know is totally different from a baby) an adult dose. I gave her 1tsp in small shot of water every 1-2 waking hours. She got relief within 24 hours and within 3 days, the urine culture showed infection TOTALLY gone. I would say that my daughter was 70-80 lbs when I gave her that amount. Hope that helps.
