The properties of Cranberry
Vaccinium macrocarpon (also called large cranberry, American cranberry and bearberry) is a North American species of cranberry of the subgenus Oxycoccus and genus Vaccinium.
There is some evidence suggesting that the berries or their juice could be useful in treating or preventing certain urinary tract infections. Some research suggests cranberries may suppress asymptomatic Helicobacter pylori colonization.
