AZO Urinary Tract Health Support Pack Review – The Bottom Line
We like the idea of a product available with essentially everything you need to accomplish both for immediate and long-term urinary tract health and relief of UTIs. We were also pleased that this product comes available at a reasonable price. We were concerned, however, with the extensive list of artificial ingredients in the AZO Cranberry caplets. It is equivalent to a glass of cranberry juice but we would rather drink a glass of juice than put so many artificial ingredients in our bodies. This would direct us to use a similar product that is more natural. We also found an abundance of negative reviews and testimonials from dissatisfied consumers who experienced negative effects from consuming this product. It is a nice idea to have a pack that contains everything you’d need for immediate long-term relief and protection of UTIs but the combination of artificial ingredients and negative reviews would have us check out other products before resorting to this one.
