Bladder Infection Diet
When healthy volunteers consumed a large amount (100 grams) of refined sugar, the ability of their white blood cells to destroy bacteria was impaired for at least five hours. Consumption of excessive amounts of alcohol has also been shown to suppress immune function. Reduced intake of dietary fat has been shown to stimulate immunity. For these reasons, many doctors recommend a reduced intake of sugar, alcohol, and fat during an acute infection and for prevention of recurrences.
People who have recurrent or chronic infections should discuss the possible role ofallergies with a doctor, since chronic infections have been linked to allergies in many reports. Identifying and eliminating foods that trigger problems may help reduce the number of infections.
