Nutrition Support for UTIs & Cystitis
Recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs) and cystitis can be frustrating, painful, and disruptive to daily life. While antibiotics are often used as a first-line treatment, they rarely address the underlying causes, leaving many people stuck in a cycle of repeat infections.
As a registered nutritional therapist, I take a functional, root-cause approach to support urinary health. By identifying and addressing the imbalances that contribute to UTIs and cystitis, we can work towards lasting relief and prevention.
Addressing the Root Cause
Chronic UTIs and bladder inflammation are often driven by deeper imbalances within the body, especially in the urinary, vaginal, and gut microbiome. These microbiomes are closely interconnected, and when they fall out of balance, it can create an environment where harmful bacteria thrive.
Through personalised dietary interventions, we can:
Support and restore the natural balance of the urinary microbiome
Nourish and strengthen the gut and vaginal microbiota
Reduce inflammation and improve bladder health
Enhance the body’s natural defence against infection
The Role of Functional Testing
To guide a targeted and effective plan, I use functional testing to assess:
The composition of your urinary, vaginal, and gut microbiomes
Inflammatory markers and immune function
Nutritional deficiencies and food sensitivities
This comprehensive approach helps uncover the root drivers of recurrent infections, so we can move beyond symptom management and towards long-term health.
