Title: Bearberry Leaf Tea Bags (Lekra-SET)
Description:
Bearberry leaf (Uva ursi) tea bags offer a natural solution for urinary tract health. Known for its potent disinfecting, bactericidal, antiseptic, diuretic, and astringent properties, bearberry effectively combats inflammation in the bladder and urinary tract. Its antiseptic action stems from tannins, while bactericidal effects are attributed to arbutin and methyl-arbutin, which the body metabolizes into hydroquinone – a powerful disinfectant and bactericide. Bearberry is particularly effective for treating inflammatory urinary tract conditions (pyelitis, cystitis, urethritis) in individuals with alkaline urine. Rich in flavonoids, it enhances diuresis, promoting the excretion of sodium and chloride ions. This makes it beneficial in renal insufficiency accompanied by fluid and electrolyte imbalances. Furthermore, bearberry may be used to address urinary incontinence, diarrhea, intestinal atony, diabetes mellitus, and pulmonary tuberculosis. Externally, a decoction can aid in wound healing. Lekra-SET provides convenient and effective bearberry leaf in tea bag form for optimal results.
