Overview
•D-Mannose at 800 mg per serving is generally well-tolerated with rare mild GI upset in sensitive individuals.
•Green tea extract (decaffeinated) carries a low risk of liver injury at this dose per regulatory reviews, though rare cases reported with high-catechin extracts.
•Turmeric extract standardized to 95% curcuminoids at 200 mg with black pepper may enhance absorption but can cause mild stomach discomfort in some users.
•Vitamin D3 at 38 mcg (1500 IU) is well below upper limits (100 mcg/day) for adults and supports bladder lining without hypercalcemia risk in healthy users.
•No major allergens declared; gluten-free and antibiotic-free.
