Deliberating on the key findings of Cranberries in prevention of H. Pylori bacterial infection, Dr. Jignesh Gandhi (Senior Consultant at the Department of General & Laparoscopic Surgery, Fortis Hospitals, Mumbai) said, “H. Pylori bacterial infection is menacing threat to Indias health and its health economy. This bacterium leads to Gut Dysbiosis hampering the protecting layer of stomach lining causing a spectrum of clinical problems. These bacteria can lead from a perennial problem of acidity to a grave problem like stomach cancer in the long term if not kept under regular surveillance. About 60% of our Indian population is affected by the H. Pylori bacteria of which around 3% can have active ulcer disease with few of them leading to surgical complications and small percentage having a life time risk to develop stomach cancer. We have around 50,000 patients seeking treatment for H pylori across in form of triple drug medical therapy for a duration of 2 weeks as a standard of care. The problem is the long duration of treatment with poor patient compliance which leads to drug resistance and the H pylori bacteria getting an upper hand making it a difficult infection to treat. We are a long way before we can eradicate this infection due to the socioeconomic status and poor patient compliance in our country.“

“I had a chance to personally interact with the international leader from this research and also had some academic deliberations. In a country like India with 60% and more population with H pylori infection a suppression of 20% infection merely by daily consumption of cranberry juice along with the medical standard of care would lead to a paradigm shift in the way we would manage this under reported disease. This research if adapted to our country would not only affect the health economics but also reduce the incidence of a likely possibility of stomach cancer in this large diversified population,” Dr. Gandhi added.

Dr. Amy B. Howell, (Ph.D. Associate Research Scientist Marucci Center for Blueberry Cranberry Research Rutgers University, USA)

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Amy Howell, Associate Research Scientist, Marucci Center for Blueberry Cranberry Research, Rutgers University, USA said, “The proanthocyanidins or “PAC” compounds in Cranberries has multiple health benefits and it is what makes it so effective in the suppression of H. Pylori bacterial infection. Multiple researches show that the anti-adhesion property of the PAC prevents the bacteria from sticking to the gut and hence prevents the infection at the very first stage. Since cranberry juice does not kill the bacteria, patients develop no resistance, so often seen with antibiotics. The natural gut microbe remains preserved. This is a very good reason for India to adopt this type of dietary approach for managing these infections.“

US Cranberries

Dr. Howell mentioned that consumption of 100% cranberry juice regularly is a complementary approach towards the suppression of H. Pylori infection and it should not be looked upon as a replacement or substitute for antibiotics.

Elaborating on the India market, Mr. Sumit Saran, India Representative of US Cranberries said, “India is a growing market for US Cranberries. Consumption is increasing rapidly as more and more consumers get aware of the taste and health benefits of cranberries. US cranberries in India are commonly available in dried or in juice form. It can be easily bought from major e-commerce platforms or leading retailers across the country.”
