This is a virtual study which will invite females over the age of 18 who have had 2 or more UTIs in the past 6 months to participate. The investigators are looking at the impact of a daily dietary supplement with the recurrence of UTIs. Participants will be blinded and randomized randomized into the Control Group or Groups 1 or 2. Control Group will receive a Placebo Drink-Mix and Placebo Capsules. Group 1 will receive the Uqora Drink-Mix and Placebo Capsules. Group 2 will receive the Uqora Drink-Mix and Uqora Capsules. Each group will receive 180 day supply of the products.
Urinary Track Infections (UTIs) are the second most common infection in the United Stated. There is growing concern about the amount of antibiotic use and drug resistance. Patients with frequent UTIs are encouraged to keep well hydrated. Some are encouraged to drink cranberry juice or cranberry extract. In 2016 a published study demonstrated no difference. The investigators hypothesize that the Uqora dietary supplement will decrease the frequency of UTIs. The study was designed as a prospective randomized blinded study. Results will be patient reported results along with any confirmation of a documented UTI. Participants will be asked to keep a weekly diary logging the supplement intake. The participant will also be asked to complete the King's Health Questionnaire, a urinary health questionnaire and quality of life. The data will be entered by the participant into a portal using a personalized login and password.
