Get Healthy by Adding Cranberries to Your Diet

Cranberries - Mother Nature`s Cure for Urinary Tract Infections
In early medicine, cranberries were used as a remedy for scurvy, a gum and bleeding disorder caused by severe vitamin C deficiency, as well as being used in a poultice to treat tumors and wounds. The name cranberry has been somewhat shortened from the original name of craneberry . The flower heads on the shrubs that produce the berries were thought to resemble the heads of the cranes that gathered in the bogs where they grew.
