Lately, I experienced a pain in my lower abdomen and pain during my urination. I suspected that I have a urinary tract infection. It has been 6 days now that I suffered this pain. I always keep myself hydrated and drink water as much as I need to. I am on my way to the cooperative bank when I saw a buko juice vendor on the side street.

Buko is a coconut fruit

They say that the juice of the coconut is good for the urinary tract infection. I also believed in this because I experienced UTI before during my pregnancy. Indeed, buko juice is one of the factors that I was healed from UTI.

Tatay, the buko vendor, told me that coconut become expensive. They had a hard time selling the buko to the consumers because it costs 4.5 steems per buko. Not all buko they get from the farmers have a skin inside, that is why I don't need ask discounts. I told tatay to only choose buko with water even without skin inside. I only need the water because it is what I needed this time.

He transferred the water in a plastic then broke the buko into pieces. He gets even a little skin and he puts on the juice to add nutrients. I then take a sip dip on the juice and I feel relieved. I stay for a while to sip at least two cups of juice. Tatay give me a plastic cup.

This is the actual photo of my fresh buko juice. As I came back to school, I urinate. Then I noticed that there is no pain at all. I was amazed by this fruit, it really comforts me. After I get urinated, I dispense another round of buko juice to continually ease the pain.

I need to be mindful of my food lifestyle. I should avoid soft drinks even if it is tempting. I should research what food to avoid because it is not easy to experience UTI especially during night time, I can't sleep. Also, I need not to hold my urinating because it is one of the factors cause by UTI. As of this writing, I feel a little relieved.
