Constant UTI suffers 'haven't had one' since taking 'life-changing' supplement
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common ailment, particularly among women. The constant need to urinate and the pain associated with it can significantly disrupt daily routines and affect overall wellbeing. This often results in repeated antibiotic treatments and ongoing frustration. UTIs can impact the bladder, urethra or kidneys, presenting symptoms such as painful urination, blood in the urine, and abdominal or back pain. These infections typically occur when bacteria from faeces enter the urinary tract. While hydration, good hygiene and cranberry supplements are often recommended, many are seeking solutions that work in harmony with the body's natural microbiome. Now, customers can purchase the pH Hero Vaginal Health Support 30 capsules from Dr Vegan on a monthly subscription for £24.64, reduced from £28.99. Additionally, they can receive a further 25% off their first order using the code PH25, reports the Mirror. According to the brand, pH Hero is an award-winning blend of scientifically studied live bacteria and botanicals designed to support urinary tract health. It aids in protecting against discomfort and supports the vaginal microbiome. The formula includes five strains of live cultures providing 20bn CFU (colony forming units), prebiotics, Cranberry, Sea Buckthorn and Nettle for effective pH Hero supplement boasts a blend of ingredients with multiple health benefits, including Sea Buckthorn, which thrives in tough coastal environments. The brand highlights that Sea Buckthorn 'contributes to the mucosal function of the vagina, providing support in the case of vaginal dryness, and maintaining healthy skin from within.' Nettle is included for its natural detoxifying effects and is recognised for aiding urinary tract health. Parsley is another key component, promoting kidney function and healthy urinary flow, beneficial for those seeking to keep their excretory system in check. Cranberry, commonly used by individuals managing recurrent UTIs, offers antioxidant properties to fight oxidative stress. The product's composition is rounded off with Vitamin B6, essential for regulating hormonal activity and supporting normal cysteine synthesis, crucial for the balance of the urinary and vaginal microbiomes. For customers looking for other options, Time Health's Intimate Flora for Women retails at £21.99 and includes targeted probiotic strains along with cranberry and d-mannose for urinary tract support. Alternatively, Natures Aid Cranberry 500mg available for £8.22 at Health Store Express is reputed to aid UTIs, detoxification, and blood toxin removal. The pH Hero has garnered high praise from its users, with Leslie sharing her personal experience: "pH hero has totally changed my life. I am 58 with the bladder of an 18 year old. I was having so many problems and constantly wanting the toilet before I found pH Hero. Now I don't wake in the night and I don't need the loo constantly. I adore this product I have been on it now a year and wont be without it again." Melinda also expressed her satisfaction, stating: "PH Hero has been the very first product in over 20 years that keeps UTIs at bay. If, like me, you suffer and rely on antibiotics and cranberry, take PH Hero. I haven't had a UTI since taking them,".

Another shopper, Alex, shared a more favourable review: "This has been a total game-changer for me. I was crippled with constant UTI's for years, nothing worked and over a few weeks they stopped and nothing since." Those interested can purchase pH Hero from Dr Vegan.

Urinary tract infections are common but there are ways to treat it for 25% off Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are incredibly common, especially among women. From constant urges, to painful trips to the bathroom, recurring UTIs can seriously disrupt daily life and in turn, impact wellbeing - often leading to repeated courses of antibiotics and ongoing frustration. UTIs can affect the bladder, urethra or kidneys, and can include symptoms such as pain while peeing, blood in the pee, and pain in the tummy or back, with infections usually caused by bacteria from poo entering the urinary tract. While hydrating, hygiene and cranberry supplements are among some of the recommendations, many are turning to targeted support that works with the body's natural microbiome. Now shoppers can grab the pH Hero Vaginal Health Support 30 capsules from Dr Vegan for a monthly subscription of £24.64 down from £28.99 to help.

Toyota opens biggest car parts centre in southern hemisphere in Kewdale
Toyota has officially opened its $115 million parts and accessories centre — the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere and among the most valuable industrial properties ever built in WA. The Kewdale facility is more than three times the size of its previous site, with a massive 22,000sqm workshop — enough to cover more than three soccer fields. In a sign of the Japanese multinational's confidence in WA, the facility services 550,000 Toyota vehicles on local roads, with ample capacity for expansion. The wholesale centre means Toyota drivers will likely no longer need to wait for spare parts from the east coast or overseas — delays that emerged during the COVID pandemic. Gary Nettle, executive director of Toyota WA's parts distribution, said the size and technology of the new Parts and Accessories Distributor Facility were unprecedented in the southern hemisphere. 'We have invested heavily in 'world's best' technical innovation, notably automation explicitly designed to optimise the flow of goods whilst minimising time and disruption,' Mr Nettle said. 'To put the size of this centre into perspective, you will better understand its scale when I tell you that this facility can house four A380 jets and accommodate the entire Optus Stadium and if we wanted to get real cosy we could get about 94,000 people in here.' Mr Nettle said the facility operates on the ADAPTO system — an automated storage and retrieval system developed with Toyota subsidiary Vanderlande. The system includes driverless vehicles and 44 robotic shuttles that collect and deliver parts to mechanics in another section. Shuttle traffic is software-controlled to maximise efficiency. The winding conveyor belt system spans more than 630 metres — the length of about 140 Corollas lined up bumper to bumper. While artificial intelligence is displacing jobs globally, Mr Nettle told last night's launch that the system would allow staff to focus on 'more complex tasks instead of repetitive ones'. He said early data indicated that the centre's rate of receiving inbound goods is about six times faster than at the previous facility, indicating dealerships will have to hold significantly lower stock holdings to cope with demand. The system involves seven inbound loading docks and a further 18 dedicated dispatch doors. The whole centre is powered by nearly 1000 solar panels behind a 400kW PV system, helping it achieve a 5.5 Green Star rating and a 94 per cent weighted recycling rate during construction. In a sign of WA's maturing industrial property sector, the racking and three-level mezzanine structure was designed, engineered and manufactured by Bassendean company APC. The new centre includes a Stan Perron training room, in honour of the late entrepreneur, who sold Toyota's commercial and passenger models as well as their parts and accessories from the late 1960s. The arrangement with Toyota operated for many decades with no written contract, instead relying on a handshake agreement.
