| Abstract | Cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is a fruit native to North America which is rich in nutrients. It is most commonly taken by humans as cranberry juice cocktails. This super-fruit has antioxidant properties, is anti-cancer and used for treatment in urinary tract infections, intestinal infections as well as oral infections. Its main antioxidant and protective action are due to its high polyphenolic and organic acid content. Its low toxicity and high biocompatibility gives it a great advantage and a promising future as a therapeutic agent. This review discussed the uses of cranberry extract. |
