Raspberry Leaf 1oz
How To Uses & Preparations:
Teas, capsules, and tinctures.
Raspberry leaf tea may provide a whole range of potential benefits, most of them relating to pregnancy and women’s health. Red raspberry leaf contains vitamins and minerals, tannins, flavonoids and other compounds[2]. It may provide antioxidant, anti inflammatory and antimicrobial activity[3] and potentially provide numerous benefits during and after pregnancy,[4] help relieve menstrual cramping, mild diarrhoea and throat inflammation[5]. Raspberry fruit contains anthocyanins[6], powerful antioxidant and pigment responsible for red and purple color of fruits and vegetables.
Traditionally, the main use of raspberry leaf tea infusion was during and after pregnancy, to “relieve nausea, increase milk production, increase uterine tone and ease labor pain[7]”. It’s often used to stimulate labor, but studies suggest it may not be as effective at inducing the labor as on improving the labor outcome and reducing the need of different medical interventions[8].
