I thought I would share another tip.

I find that taking a bath with baking soda helps to with the burn when having those kinds of things. I used to get them all the time as a child and my Mom would put me in the tub after going to the bathroom and it helped at times to take away the burn from going to the washroom. Now I do the same with Haylee and Harry.(Boys don't get them. Harry has a bacteria that often grows in his bladder which causes the same symptoms as a UTI infection.)

Pardon my ignorance but what does UTI stand for and what exactly is it? Is it a kidney infection, a bladder infection. a uterus infection or a yeast infection? Tropical fruits such as mangos, papayas and coconuts (and coconut milk) are excellent antiviral/antiyeast and antibacterial foods. Since 'no sugar' is mentioned, I am guessing that it is a yeast infection. Sugar makes the body more acidic. Sugar kills bacteria and fosters the growth of yeast. Normally, bacterial and yeasts keep each other in check in a PH balanced body. Usually, bacterial/yeast infections have something to do with a PH imbalance and a resulting overgrowth of either one. Yeasts and bacteria are opposites, ie. an over-acid PH will support one and kill the other and vice versa. Check your PH with PH strips and find foods that balance and normalize the body PH to correct bacterial/yeast overgrowths. A cup of hydrogen peroxide (3%) in bathwater is an excellent skin disinfectant that is also very skin-friendly. It is also the 'green solution' to whiten whites and brighten colors in your laundry. Food grade hydrogen peroxide is also an inexpensive way to whiten your teeth. After brushing your teeth with your normal toothpaste, spray a little hydrogen peroxide (food grade) on your toothbrush, brush, rinse and spit. Voila, whiter, brighter teeth! It disinfects the gums and teeth too!
