Unique Features: We procure our hibiscus extract from France, a region where hibiscus has been researched for its potential to prevent support bladder health. To ensure the preservation of its active components, we employ a gentle water extraction method for concentrating the beneficial properties of the hibiscus flower.

Understanding the Benefits

Purpose: Hibiscus has a centuries-old history of consumption in teas and beverages. Abundant in antioxidants and polyphenols, hibiscus offers various health benefits. Traditionally, it has been used to promote kidney health and bladder health.

Hibiscus can act as a mild diuretic, aiding the body's natural bladder cleansing process. When combined with our cranberry phytosome, it creates an ideal synergy for supporting urinary tract health.
