Protect Yourself With The
(NAPS)--Ifyou or someone you care
about is among the estimated 150 mil-
lion women who'll have a urinary tract
infection (UTI) this year, you may be re-
lieved to .know that cranberry juice may
be a nutritional approach to help avoid
the infection in the first place.
"l'he Problem
Approximately 60 percent of women
will experience a UTI in their lifetimes
and one in four will suffer a recurrence
within six months.
UTIs are typically treated with pre-
scribed antibiotics; however, antibiot-
ic resistance--when bacteria stop re-
sponding to the drugs designed to kill
them--is possibly the single most im-
portant infectious disease threat people
face today.
In fact, each year, more than two mil-
lion Americans are infected by germs
that are resistant to antibiotics and at
least 23,000 people die as a result.
According to an omnibus survey
conducted by KRC of 1,000 Americans,
nine in 10 adults understand that over-
using antibiotics can be harmful to one's
health. So what's the alternative?
An Answer
Thankfully, there is ~ small, nutri-
ent-dense fruit that can ,help defend
your body against UTIs. ,The ~best part?
You don't need a prescription for it.
It's the cranberry.
"More than 50 years of well-docu-
mented research points to cranberries'
unique ability to block certain bad
bacteria:' said Dr. Christina Khoo, Di-
rector of Global Health Sciences and
Regulatory Affairs at Ocean Spray.
"This makes cranberries one delicious
option that may help prevent urinary
tract infections7
Dr. Khoo notes that the key to
avoiding the infection altogether is
consuming an eight-ounce glass of
cranberry juice daily. People shouldn't
wait until they have a UTI to drink

Power Of Cranberry Juice

Cranberry juice is more than a re-
freshing drink--it may also improve
the quality of life for women who
suffer from UTIs.
cranberry juice, because once the
symptoms start, they'll likely need a
course of antibiotics.
According to that same omnibus
survey, consuming cranberry juice daily
shouldn't be a problem--three-quarters
of adults would rather drink a glass of
cranberry juice a day than take antibiot-
ics a few times a year.
At a time when antibiotic resistance
threatens public health around the
world, research shows that consumi/~g
cranberry juice daily can be' a nutritional
approach to reducing symptomatic UTIs
and, as a result, may be a useful way to
decrease the worldwide use of antibiotics.
So it seems cranberry juice is more than
a refreshing drink--it may also improve
the quality of life for women who suffer
from UTIs by reducing their trips to the
doctor, their lab costs and antibiotic use.

at our church.
Also a the church was a bunch of
people waiting to surprise our Pastor
(Roger Persinger) with a birthday
party for his 70th birthday!
He received many cards and nice
gifts. He also received cards from
many people he knows from all over
the county. If you sent one, thanks
for helping us make his day special.
Bob Cales had a little talk before
the blessing and also asked for other
to say things they wished to say to
or about Pastor Roger.
Many nice things were said and
we hope he had a great day.
Our last event for the year was
our annual Christmas play
December 18th @ 7:00 p.m. The title
was ~Come to Bethlehem and see!"
The church was full and weather co-
operated to let us go on and have it.
We had fun preparing the play and
we hope that all who attended
enjoyed it.
Our goal was to celebrate Jesus,
the very best gift was ever given and
to get the story told to those who
may not know the true meaning of
Christmas.
Now as we close the year 2016
we would like to say "Happy New
Year" to everyone and if you don't

welcome to come worship with us.
Our church is located above the
