In this study, researchers from the University of California evaluated the compliance with and tolerability of daily intake of cranberry capsule for the prevention of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) during pregnancy. The results of their study were published in The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine.
Based on these results, the researchers concluded that compliance with and tolerability of cranberry capsule ingestion are good among pregnant women, and that the supplement provides an effective means of preventing ASB during pregnancy.
