Urinary discomfort includes a set of signs such as an urgent need to urinate, high frequency of urination per day, discomfort / difficulty or burning sensation when urinating, smelly urine. This urinary discomfort represents in women 2 to 5% of the reasons for consultation (Berg, 1991) and can have various etiologies but the bacterial origin is the most frequent. Cranberries are traditionally used for urinary comfort and the prevention of urinary disorders with bacterial origin. The study objective is to collect in real life efficacy and tolerance data from the consumption of 3 cranberry extracts in order to highlight the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of these extracts which are directly involved in the improvement of urinary discomfort or situation of recurrent cystitis symptomatic episodes in women.
