Home Remedies for UTI (Urinary Tract Infection)

Stay Hydrated

Drinking sufficient fluids on a daily basis is probably the simplest way to treat your urinary tract infection. Water would ensure frequent urination, which can remove bacteria and waste products from your urinary tract. More importantly, hydration will keep the body functioning properly to carry nutrients and oxygen to different parts. This is very important in ensuring that your immune system would work properly and eliminate bacteria causing the infection. Another benefit of drinking water is to prevent microorganisms from reaching the lining cells in urinary organs. While the exact daily intake can vary from people to people, you should drink at least 2 liters per day. [2]
