Mallow for UTI scarring.., search for case study

I haven't seen it, but it makes sense. It's soothing and healing, right? And what you drink has to go through the urinary tract eventually.

PubMed has an article that is rather vague about it, but it seems marshmallow worked for UTIs, and Doc Jones says they're interchangeable.

These may not be the ones, but they were the most specific about mallow for UTIs that I could find.

I had an email re convos here on UTI. Had to reset password and lost the thread…sigh. I just read an old comment by a (now former) ER nurse explaining how this works etc.

My comment on D-mannos:

I’ve been using it effectively for years for low grade constant UTI. Recently a number of producers have switched from making the simple sugar out of birch bark to making it out of corn. It stopped working. When my doc from office tried to call the lab that makes it, they refused to answer her repeat calls inquiring about the possible switch (they took a message originally to “find out more”).

Be sure you’re getting what you need and pay attention of the label changes (even when they insist it’s the same product). Sure, it is the same molecule, but it effects my body differently because sourcing and production quality all matter.
