AMAZING!!!!! August 2, 2010

My family member has reoccuring UTIs caused by the psedomona bacteria. Hospital stays where a foley is used to make staff jobs easier has made the problem so bad I wondered if the problem would kill my family member. I searched the internet and found d-mannose. I almost didn't buy the d-mannose because the literature says the E-coli bacteria is the bacteria it fights against in the blatter. I decided to try it, why not, the antibiotics worked until they were stopped and the infection was back with a vengence. My family member has been on this a week tomorrow when we ended his course of antibiotics the same day we started this, his urine is almost clear and seems to be getting clearer each day. Usually he would have been in the middle of a horrible reoccurance of another UTI, but he is not, this is not to say it won't happen, but it hasn't so far. This is the psedomona bacteria we are fighting, it seems like it is working against it too!! If you are desperately fighting what looks like a loosing battle against reoccurring UTIs you have nothing to loose to give this a try, don't cheat yourself, it just may work. Oh, ya, my family member is a senior citizen, d-mannose is easy on the older people's system, another plus!! I will up date as we travel this road. For once, I have some hope for my loved one in this fight against reoccurring UTIs, it is nice to see him become more himself since he isn't so sick. Update, it has been a while now, my family member's urine is not perfectly clear, but he does not have a UTI, yet!! I guess his urine will not be perfectly clear, that's ok, at least he isn't sick. Homecare nurse is amazed, they just took blood to test his blood sugar, since d-mannose is a simple sugar, I think they think his blood sugar may rise. My family member is doing amazingly great, I have him back, how wonderful (now what to do when he goes to the hospital again and we come face to face with the dreaded foley!!)
It REALLY works! If you are skeptical-just try it! July 17, 2010

I cannot express how thrilled I have been to find this product. For years I have suffered recurrent UTIs, especially during pregnancy. For two of my pregnancies they put me on a daily dose of antibiotics because the infection was constant-and they just released a study showing that those specific drugs cause dark staining to the child's permanent teeth.
This pregnancy I really wanted to not take antibiotics again, but when I had the onset of another very painful UTI, I didn't know what to do. When I talked to a friend who is a nurse, she told me about this product. She worked with the Doctor who did research showing that it effectively flushes e. coli (the most common culprit of UTI) out because it prevents the bacteria from invading your bladder lining.
I was in a lot of pain-full blown infection. I had all the classic symptoms-fever, chills, frequency, urgency, horrible burning, etc. I had this product overnighted (thank you Amazon!) and within 6 hours of beginning a 1 tsp every 2 hr. regimen, I was feeling relief from burning and the chills had diminished-24 hours later I was completely symptom free. That was 5 days ago, and I've tapered down my dose to 1/2 tsp. 3x a day, and I will try to find a maintenance dose.
I couldn't be happier to have found this-I just wish I would have known about it a decade (and many dozens of UTIs) ago and prevented harming my kids in utero by taking antibiotics. I have seen six urologists over the years, and begged for any natural solution (beyond water & cranberry) and never heard of this before now. I will be telling my doctor about it asap. I am amazed at how quickly and efficiently it worked-I've never had relief so fast from an antibiotic, even.
What a relief July 3, 2010

I am so grateful to have found this product. I have interstitial cystitis (for many years) which flares up too often. Having used antibiotics on several instances in the past year, I was searching for a "holistic" approach for treatment. Having found MannoMax(thanks to an Amazon search) I purchased it and immediately after one use I felt relief. I now drink it, in hot water, on a daily basis and more often if I anticipate an issue of bladder irritation.I cannot praise this product enough, I have told my primary doctor about this as well.

As a frequent suffer of UTI's-who is also allergic to many antibiotics- I was so grateful to find this product. It is easy to use-it even has a hand little purple scoop inside-and works extremely well. It will clear up a UTI in less than three days. The instructions are easy to follow and the product has a very plesant taste. I would highly recommend this product.
d-Mannose works but there is a learning curve January 3, 2010

I never had urinary tract infections until I became a diabetic. The first time I got one I ended up in the ER with extreme pain from a distended bladder. Doctors put me on antibiotics and I'd be ok for a while, even months but this is a problem that progresses. Now I have UTI pretty much all the time and the antibiotics stopped working. I've heard that if I lived on a lower glycemic diet, the UTI would go away but for now I've discovered d-mannose from the writings of Jonathan Wright MD of Tacoma Clinic.
D-mannose power is d-mannose powder so there isn't a lot of difference between one brand or another. I like this particular brand because when I called their customer service to ask a question about doseage they gave me a very thorough and easily understood answer - not the first time I called, but the 2nd time when someone who had more technical knowledge got back to me. I also like their purple scoop. Other products don't have scoops at all or have clear plastic scoops that are very difficult to find in the tub.
The trick with d-mannose is that you have to know how much you're taking and start by taking plenty,then gradually taper off until you have a maintenance dose. A mantenance dose isn't necessary for everyone but for those of us who have reoccuring episodes it's vital. Read up on how much you should take and do it as recommended. I got good info from [...] - a product under d-mannose that is meant to get you started and contains only enough for 4 days. After that you can use powder or capsules. Powder is less expensive but capsule contain exact amounts of d-mannose with fillers. Right now and until I know what my maintenance dose is, I'm using capsules because I want exactness.
This is a good product. Even after stirring it may settle at the bottom of your glass so give it a little time to disolve. I put it in water so that I can see when it's fully disolved. Room temp water works better than cold water.
