WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 2017 ❚ SIUSLAW NEWS
(NAPSA)-If you or
someone you care about is
among the estimated 150
million women who’ll
have a urinary tract infec-
tion (UTI) this year, you
may be relieved to know
that cranberry juice may
be a nutritional approach
to help avoid the infection
in the fi rst place.
The Problem
Approximately 60 per-
cent of women will expe-
rience a UTI in their life-
times and one in four will
suffer a recurrence within
six months.
UTIs are typically
treated with prescribed
antibiotics; however, an-
tibiotic resistance-when
bacteria stop responding
to the drugs designed to
kill them-is possibly the
single most important
infectious disease threat
people face today.
In fact, each year,
more than two million
Americans are infected
by germs that are resistant
to antibiotics and at least
23,000 people die as a re-
sult.
According to an omni-
bus survey conducted by
KRC of 1,000 Americans,
nine in 10 adults under-
stand that overusing anti-
biotics can be harmful to
one’s health. So what’s the
alternative?
An Answer
Thankfully, there is a
small, nutrient-dense fruit
that can help defend your
body against UTIs. The
best part? You don’t need
a prescription for it.
It’s the cranberry.
“More than 50 years of
well-documented research
points to cranberries’
unique ability to block
certain bad bacteria,” said
Dr. Christina Khoo, Di-
rector of Global Health
Sciences and Regulatory
Affairs at Ocean Spray.
“This makes cranberries
one delicious option that
may help prevent urinary
tract infections.”

and others from cybercrimes.
use unsecure networks every day,
but 60 percent say they don’t trust
public Wi-Fi to keep their data
safe. More than half of people use
public Wi-Fi in places like parks,
restaurants, libraries and hotels
but keep online banking (2 per-
cent) and social media use (28 per-
cent) relatively low.
“What we post and do online is
like a tattoo. It never goes away,”
Konzen says. “We can’t always use
secure networks, especially when
we’re away from home, so people
should be smart about the types of
information they’re sharing when
on public networks.”
If you have to use public net-
works, Konzen suggests using vir-
tual private networks (VPNs), web
proxies, and anonymous browsers,
like Tor; confirm a network is safe
before joining and make sure to
limit the amount of personal infor-
mation shared online. Using
strong passwords, keeping soft-
ware up to date, and using wire-
less hot spots, if available, are
other ways to stay secure, he says.
University of Phoenix College of
Information Systems & Technol-
ogy prepares cyberprofessionals to
combat increasing cybercrimes.
The University offers associate,
bachelor’s and master’s degrees
that teach the risk management
and information assurance skills
vital to an organization’s success.

Dr. Khoo notes that the
key to avoiding the infec-
tion altogether is consum-
ing an eight-ounce glass
of cranberry juice daily.
People shouldn’t wait
until they have a UTI to
drink cranberry juice, be-
cause once the symptoms
start, they’ll likely need a
course of antibiotics.
According to that same
omnibus survey, consum-
ing cranberry juice daily
shouldn’t be a problem-
three-quarters of adults
would rather drink a glass
of cranberry juice a day
than take antibiotics a few
times a year.
At a time when anti-
biotic resistance threatens
public health around the
world, research shows
that consuming cranberry
juice daily can be a nutri-
tional approach to reduc-
ing symptomatic UTIs
and, as a result, may be a
useful way to decrease the
worldwide use of antibiot-
ics. So it seems cranberry
juice is more than a re-
freshing drink-it may also
improve the quality of life
for women who suffer
from UTIs by reducing
their trips to the doctor,
their lab costs and antibi-
otic use.

Majority Of U.S. Adults Say The Convenience Of
Public Wi-Fi Outweighs The Risk Of Cyberthreats
(NAPSA)—At the end of 2013,
SAP Software Solutions reported
that there were more mobile
devices on Earth than people.
That’s a staggering statistic, espe-
cially when you take into account
the large number of cyberattacks
that happen every day. The world
is more connected than ever and
people are constantly using smart-
phones and other interconnected
devices to find their news, use
social media or stay in touch.
There are numerous benefits of
interconnectedness, but with it
also comes cyberthreats people
should be aware of.
In 2004, the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security designated
October as National Cybersecurity
Awareness Month to raise aware-
ness of cybersecurity issues. FBI
findings suggest that millions of
cyberattacks happen each day.
Utah alone reported 20 million
attempts per day last year. Connec-
tion to public Wi-Fi networks could
be partially to blame. Many of the
features that make public Wi-Fi so
appealing, like free and easy inter-
net access without using data, are
also attractive to hackers looking to
steal personal information.
A recent survey of 2,235 U.S.
adults conducted by the Univer-
sity of Phoenix suggests that the
majority of people use public net-
works despite the risks. A quarter
of adults say they almost always
use unsecure networks when
away from home and more than
half (52 percent) say the conve-
nience of using public Wi-Fi out-
weighs the risk.
“People need to understand that
everything you put online can be
exposed when the network you’re
using isn’t secure,” says Dan
Konzen, University of Phoenix Col-
lege of Information Systems &
Technology campus chair. “Bank
credentials, passwords and other
personal information can be stolen
when you use networks that are
open to anyone.”
The same survey suggests that
people are unaware of the dangers
of public Wi-Fi or simply don’t
care. Sixty-one percent of adults
