If you have a parent or grandparent with dementia, you know how tough it can be to watch them succumb to it over the years. They have good and bad days, which can be tough, especially if you’re their primary caretaker.
But did you know that sudden onset dementia may not be dementia at all, but rather a UTI? I was a bit flabbergasted when I learned that.
How do you know if it's UTI-induced delirium (this is the medical term for sudden onset dementia caused by a UTI) or dementia? You'll need to make a doctor's appointment and have them run some tests to be sure.
And just as importantly - how do you make sure to prevent future UTIs so this doesn't happen again?

Common signs of UTI-induced dementia
Did you know that women 70+ are almost 4x more likely to have a UTI than a women in her 20s or 30s? And that number increases every year we age?* UTI symptoms also may look different as we get older, which is why they can be mistaken for dementia.
Here are some symptoms to look out for:
Agitation
Restlessness
More difficulty concentrating
Hallucinations
Extreme fatigue
Becoming withdrawn
Tasks they could do before are suddenly not as easy
Sudden urinary incontinence or leaking
Cloudy or even pink or brown-colored urine
Strong odor to the urine
A lot of those overlap with classic dementia symptoms, so it's not that surprising they're mistaken for that.
Can you prevent UTI-induced dementia?
Your first thought is probably, "cranberry juice," and you're on the right track! Cranberry juice has been used for hundreds of years to prevent UTIs. Doctors often suggest it alongside D-Mannose supplements to optimize bladder health. Unfortunately, 100% cranberry juice is extremely tart and hard to get down and most D-Mannose pills are large and the dosage alone can be deterring--up to 6 capsules a day!
That’s why I love Semaine’s Urinary Tract Cleanse & Protect. It has rave reviews and it starts protecting in as little as 12 hours.

One purple capsule a day keeps the urologist away
One purple capsule a day? Yes, please!
Semaine’s Urinary Tract Cleanse & Protect utilizes a unique formulation with a cranberry phytosome. What the heck is that? Let's break it down.
Cranberry phytosome is the perfect blend of ancient wisdom and modern science when it comes to preventing UTIs.
For centuries, cranberries have been used to support urinary tract health because they contain proanthocyanidins (PACs)—natural compounds that prevent harmful bacteria, especially E. coli, from sticking to the walls of the urinary tract. This makes it easier for the body to flush out bacteria before they can cause an infection.
But here’s where modern science takes things to the next level: traditional cranberry extracts aren’t easily absorbed by the body, which limits their effectiveness. That’s where phytosome technology comes in. By combining cranberry extract with phospholipids (fats that mimic cell membranes), cranberry phytosome increases the bioavailability of PACs. This means the active compounds are absorbed more efficiently, allowing them to reach the urinary tract faster and work more effectively—even at lower doses.
In short, cranberry phytosome combines the time-tested power of cranberries with cutting-edge technology, delivering faster, more potent protection with just one easy capsule a day. It’s the best of both worlds—natural wisdom enhanced by scientific innovation.
In addition to this cranberry phytosome, they also include hibiscus extract, another example of ancient wisdom supported by modern science.
Hibiscus has long been used to support kidney health by reducing calcium oxalate retention in the kidneys--a common cause of kidney stones. Polyphenols, aka antioxidants, in hibiscus have also been shown to reduce UTI occurrence. There is a strong link between kidney stones and recurrent UTIs, which makes it important to protect against both.
This is where the science comes in: hibiscus is very easily absorbed in the body as a tea, but what about a supplement? Gentle water extraction concentrates the beneficial properties of hibiscus increasing bioavailability. In addition, it is even better absorbed when paired with foods rich in vitamin C--hello cranberries!
This formulation is extremely well thought out to deliver exceptional bladder support while also being extremely well absorbed by the human body.
If you have a parent or grandparent, you need to get this for them. It’s so much gentler than antibiotics but strong enough to prevent UTIs. The pills are also small and easy to swallow. It’s worth the peace of mind.
