Grapefruit juice I know we should not drink but never heard about Cranberry.

I was told and remember reading re Cranberry juice on diagnosis 6 years ago so I have always avoided cranberries since.

Hi Maria, I have checked with Prof Harrison for you and she said she can't think of a reason for no cranberry juice in this context. Best wishes, Maz

Are you on warfarin Maria ? . I am and cranberry is contra-indicated with warfarin .
