Rich in minerals and vitamins, it is traditionally used during pregnancy to tone and strengthen the tissue of the uterus to assist contractions during labour. As a herbal tea it helps to tighten and tone the ligaments supporting the uterus, making it beneficial in the relief of painful and profuse menstruation (dysmenorrhoea). Raspberry leaf tea is also effective in the treatment of diarrhoea, due to its astringent properties, and as a gargle it can provide relief for mouth and throat inflammation.
Medicinal Use
Beneficial during the third trimester of pregnancy to tone and prepare the uterus for childbirth. May be taken up to five times a day during labour to facilitate delivery. Raspberry leaf used as an astringent can help relieve symptoms of diarrhoea and dysmenorrhoea (painful and profuse menstruation). Use as a gargle to relieve inflammation associated with bleeding gums/sore throat/mouth ulcers/tonsillitis. Claims are based on traditional use in western herbal medicine.
