Slang consists of a lexicon of non-standard words and phrases in a given language. Use of these words and phrases is typically associated with the subversion of a standard variety (such as Standard English) and is likely to be interpreted by listeners as implying particular attitudes on the part of the speaker.
One caveat with D-mannose is that it is only effective with UTIs caused by E. coli infection. While this accounts for about 90% of cases, there are 10% that will not benefit from this treatment. In this case, supplements that help disrupt biofilms can be useful in treating and preventing UTIs.
D-Mannose is actually a type of sugar. But not your regular sugar (glucose), which goes with your coffee (this type would actually make your symptoms worse). Your body does not metabolize D-Mannose like other sugars. Thatâs why D-Mannose does not affect the blood sugar levels, and therefore is safe for the diabetics. This is also why once you intake D-Mannose it is quickly expelled from your body in urine. High concentration of D-Mannose in urine is the main reason why it works against E. coli bacteria in your bladder.
