Ask the Doctor", Dr. Peter Gott, Newspaper Columnist, March 31, 2009 http://www.montereyherald.com/health/ci_12035732 **************** Dear Dr. Gott: I want to tell you about my experience with vitamin C tablets to stop urinary-tract infections. My urologist suggested two vitamin C tablets (1,000 milligrams each) daily. I have been free of UTIs for many years with this remedy. My urologist said it is more difficult for an infection to take hold in acidic urine. ****************** Dear Reader: Your urologist is right on the money. Vitamin C helps increase the amount of acid in urine. As a result, the bladder is not an appealing environment for harmful bacteria. You have found a remedy that works for you and may help other readers. Thank you for writing. Write to Dr. Gott c/o United Media, 200 Madison Ave., 4th fl., New York, N.Y. 10016. |
