Vitamin C: Vitamins C, chemically is ascorbic acid. This will lower the pH of your urine and in turn make an inhospitable environment for bacteria to grow. Take 1000 mg orally 4x/d for 7-10 days. Cranberry juice helps keep the bacteria from sticking to the inside of your bladder. Drink 8-12 oz three to four x/day.
