Researchers believe that cranberries contain substances that prevent infection-causing bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract walls. However, store-bought cranberry juice is typically all sugar - so make sure to stick with straight cranberries.

1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1 pound carrots, shredded (about 5 medium carrots)
