Red Raspberry is one of the most well known and most loved fruits in the world, but in the herbal and midwifery world, its leaves are also a dearly treasured herbal remedy for women of childbearing age.
Raspberry Leaf is most popular as a tonic for pregnancy and labor, but it is also excellent as a nutritive and tonic in preparation for pregnancy.
Benefits:
Uterine Trauma : Red raspberry leaf tea is a popular herbal uterine tonic that can help with uterine trauma and recovery after birth. It's said to help with healing and restoring tone to the uterus and pelvic muscles after surgery for:
Endometriosis, Ovarian cysts, Fibroid removal, Uterine prolapse, Previous uterine hemorrhage, and C-sections.
Shortens Labor: Red Raspberry Tea contains vitamins and minerals, and some midwives believe it can be beneficial for inducing or shortening labor.
Some studies have shown that pregnant women who took raspberry leaf tea from 35 weeks on experienced a shorter second stage of labor.
Studies have shown red raspberry leaf tea both stimulates and relaxes smooth muscle—and since the uterus is a smooth muscle, the theory is that red raspberry leaf tea could strengthen the uterus and prepare it for labor and delivery.
Raspberry leaf is particularly valued in the last 2 or 3 months of pregnancy where it is used to strengthen the uterus prior to giving birth
Heavy and Irregular menstruation: The tannins present in red raspberry leaf tea strengthens the uterus and uterine wall to reduce heavy and irregular bleeding during the menstrual phase.
The tea also reduces other difficult symptoms associated with periods such as vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea
The leaf tannins contain astringent properties that reduce endometriosis pain and are internally soothing.
Alleviates anemia: Red raspberry leaves contain iron, with 28 grams containing 3.3 mg, which is 18% of the recommended daily intake for women aged 19–50. Getting enough iron can help fight anemia. Raspberry leaf tea has been used for centuries as a folk medicine to treat anemia
Raspberry leaves are high in carotenoids, citric acid, tannins, vitamin A, B complex, C, and E and an easily synthesized form of iron, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and silica.
Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar: Some studies suggest that raspberry leaf tea may help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease because it's a good source of potassium, which is important for heart function and has been shown to lower blood pressure. Drinking red raspberry leaf tea can help keep blood pressure in a healthy range.
Raspberry leaf tea is rich in antioxidants which may help regulate blood sugar levels, improve digestion, and reduce inflammation.
Some suggest that raspberry leaf tea may lower blood sugar levels, but there is not much scientific evidence to support this. Here's some information about raspberry leaf tea and blood sugar
Interactions with insulin: Taking raspberry leaf with insulin may cause blood sugar levels to drop too low, so you should monitor your blood sugar closely and possibly adjust your insulin dose
One study investigated whether raspberry leaf tea reduces postprandial glucose levels in healthy adults, but there is not much evidence to support the idea that raspberry leaf tea naturally lowers blood sugar levels.
Warning
Red raspberry leaf tea is not recommended for pregnant women with high blood pressure or other health complications.
Raspberry leaf tea can interact with other medications for example, it can interact with insulin medications and make you more sensitive, which could cause insulin problems. It can also interact with medications that slow blood clotting, which might increase the risk of bruising and bleeding
