Uva-Ursi Max-V, provided by Douglas Laboratories, supplies 200 mg of standardized Uva Ursi in a vegetarian capsule. This extract is standardized at 25% arbutin.
FUNCTIONS
Uva Ursi leaves contain glycosides (arbutin and methylarbutin), tannin, hydroquinone and allantoin. Arbutin is converted in the body to hydroquinones (which turn urine green) and glucose.
Uva Ursi (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi), also known as bearberry, is a low-lying evergreen shrub found in Canada, Europe, and Asia. It has been used traditionally as a diuretic, astringent and urinary antiseptic for several hundred years.*
One of the active components in it, arbutin, releases hydroquinone, which can provide support for urinary health. Other studies have indicated that uva ursi can modulate healthy allergy and inflammatory processes.*
