Type-A proanthocyanidins (PACs-A) are cranberry’s recognised efficacy marker. Unlike the type-B PACs found in many plants, PACs-A are specific to cranberry and stand out for their ability to prevent certain bacteria from adhering to the urinary tract walls. Dynveo uses the DMAC (4-Dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde) method, considered the reference for reliably measuring PACs-A, avoiding the overestimation common with older methods. At a 14% titration, each capsule delivers 56 mg of PACs — well above the 36 mg/day threshold generally cited in the scientific literature as the minimum relevant amount for urinary comfort.

Cranberry is recognised for its favourable action in maintaining a healthy urinary environment. PACs-A act as a natural barrier, preventing unwanted micro-organisms from attaching to the mucous membranes — a preventive action especially valued by women prone to recurring urinary discomfort. Beyond urinary comfort, cranberry is also rich in antioxidants and phenolic compounds that support cellular protection. This Dynveo extract’s 25:1 concentration ratio means the actives from 10 grams of fresh berries are condensed into a single capsule, making the course both practical and economical.

Recommended dose: 1 capsule a day, with a large glass of water and a meal; up to 2 capsules a day if needed. The 60-capsule format covers two months at the standard dose, and a continuous course of several weeks is recommended to fully appreciate the urinary-comfort benefits. Suits vegetarian and vegan diets thanks to its 100% plant-based capsule, with no gluten, lactose or major allergens.

This food supplement is not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children. People on anticoagulant treatment (notably warfarin) should consult a healthcare professional before starting supplementation, as cranberry can interact with certain blood-thinning medicines. If pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor for advice. People with kidney stones or liver conditions should also seek medical advice first. Start with the minimum dose of one capsule a day to assess individual tolerance.

How do I choose an effective cranberry supplement?

Check three key criteria: the actual PACs content (minimum 36 mg/day per the literature), the dosing method used (DMAC is the reference), and organic certification excluding pesticide residues. This Dynveo product’s 14% PACs by DMAC method meets all three.

What’s the difference between cranberry juice and capsules?

Classic cranberry juice brings sugars and acidity that can limit daily intake. The dry extract in capsules concentrates the PACs without these drawbacks, with a precise, reproducible dose every time — this extract’s 25:1 ratio packs the actives of several glasses of juice into a single capsule.

Who is this cranberry extract for?

Mainly people wanting to maintain optimal urinary comfort, notably women prone to recurring urinary discomfort. Its high digestive tolerance and absence of common allergens and chemical additives make it accessible to a wide range of people.
