A member asked:
Is it true that people with a uti need to go on a strict diet and can't have any sugar?
3 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
No. Treatment usually includes antibiotic and increased intake of water. If the patient is diabetic, control of blood sugar is helpful in healing.

A UTI is a bacterial infection and is treated with antibiotics. Follow your doctors directions and maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle. No strict diet needed, and normal sugar intake for your age.
